Is there way to move the cursor (or beginning of selection) 20 ms before the current cursor position, without having to manually subtract 20 ms from the cursor time? Essentially, I'd like to just do a relative goto (GOTO -0.02) or use Set Selection (ctrl-shift-D) to adjust the IN-point to 20 ms earlier than the current IN-point. I have tried using up and down arrows in the Start/End/Length fields, but this move the time by 0.1 second.

I typically do this manually when marking tracks in concert or LP-to-CD recordings, by first visually positioning the cursor on the waveform to the start of the track, and then backing off 20 ms. I also do a 20 ms fade-in if there is noise. I'm looking for a way to speed up this process, such as a short-cut key to a keyboard-macro (AutoHotKey) or a SF script.
