Your answer is in the question. Use >= and <=, or && or [split 120 130]. Look at the help-files for all of these and all the other associated objects. That should give you a good idea of what is possible... and you will have the satisfaction of having figured it out yourself rather than getting a patch from someone...

Maybe look at timer???
