: I don't think Microwindows provides for anything like this. Are you
: running Linux (unix)? If so, you can use signal() and alarm() for low
: resolution timers. select() and setitimer() can be used for higher
: resolutions.

: Normally, you set up a signal handler for the SIGALRM and use alarm to
: start timers.
Kyle's code could work, but that's not how we want to do it,
since Win32 requires millisecond timers, min resolution 25ms.
So we'll have to use select(). And it will have to be the main select().
We want all events to come thru the microwindows main loop, so
we don't want to use alarm, signal, or setitimer...
