[00:15:45:22] The vast majority of the system's mass is in the Sun,
[00:15:53:12] with most of the remaining mass contained in Jupiter.
A macro to insert a time and paragraph break is fairly straightforward, but what does the FF represent? Your examples don't seem to relate to the time elapsed, since the difference between 00:15:30 and 00:15:45 is 45 seconds, not the 22 in the output, though the difference between 00:15:45 and 00:15:53 is 12 seconds, which your last example reflects. If it's meant to be seconds, what happens if there are more than 60?
