I initially posted this under a different category, but I figured this one was
more relevant, here's my original message (you can tell when I initially wrote
it, it was late and I was tired haha):

How do you open the timeline editor in Moray? I am 100% sure I have clicked
every button in the program and I cannot figure it out. I've gone to the help
page, watched tutorials, everything. They always just say to "open time timeline
editor".

I am afraid I am not going to be of much help... I once was a fervent 
user of Moray but for the past 10 to 15 years have abandoned it; it is 
not even on my system anymore. That said, I do not remember a Timeline 
Editor, which sounds to me like an animation feature. Did Moray do 
animations? Possibly, but I never used it if so.

There are still former Moray users around in these groups and I hope 
somebody will be able to help more effectively...

I found this:

https://xan-der.tripod.com/AnimPluginContents.html

Animation with Moray is done by a plugin. Timeline Editor is mentioned 
in this site.

I actually had come across that, but it never says how to open the timeline
editor, it just talks about it. Thanks for the find though Thomas!

Do you have the AnimPlugin? Xander's site does not enable downloads 
anymore. I do have a copy though (AnimPlugin.dll) in my archives.

No I don't, I guess for some reason I assumed it came with it. Is there any way
I can get my hands on the plugin?

Thank you! Do I just bring the exe into the plugins folder?

Right. That was the first trouble shooting question: "Is de device 
switched /on/?" ;-)

Normally, most Moray plugins are in the form of a .dll, which is brought 
into the Plugin folder. I do not remember how this was with the 
AnimPlugin as an .exe file. You can try to put it in the folder and see 
how/if it works. Alternatively, you can try to run the .exe file outside 
Moray and see if it installs something in the Plugin folder. Finally, I 
attach here the .dll file I found in my archives, for you to drop in the 
Plugin folder. I guess that that last one is the utility you are looking 
for.

I just re-visited Xander's site: the installation of the plugin is 
clearly explained there:
