Make screenshot interval configurable

Description

It would be great to be able to adjust the screenshot interval before starting a recording. I'll look into how that would get done from the menubar with ~~py2app~~ ~~the AppKit and/or Foundation libraries~~ PyObjC . Possibly a slider and/or second value input dialog once a menu option is selected?

Thank you for this simple yet incredibly useful app!

Looks like NSAlert might do the trick. Seems you can also place a NSTextField inside but that's as far as I got tonight 🤷‍♂️

@andreipopovici Thanks a lot for your efforts! A PR will be most welcome, and feel free to start one as a work-in-progress with whatever you've managed to do so far.

@andreipopovici any progress on this? I tried the NSAlert, but it didn't work for me. It just got stuck and didn't show any message. Then again, the source code is a decade old already, so probably things have changed in the meantime. Did you have more luck?
