> Why can't the delay be a float?

My mistake was influenced by the lack of the function that
would check for a positive number (e.g. 'positive-number-p').
I tried to find such a function, then noticed that 'natnump'
at least checks for a non-negative number, but I forgot that
this applies only to integers.  So below is a fixed patch:
