To keep it simple, I am currently just using the built in fonts, but as we
get closer to release I will be using the true type fonts.

What happens is this: Mozilla sets timers for tasks, and in my main loop I
get the timeout value (a struct timeval) for the next timeout function. I
need to block until I get an event from Nano-X, or an event queue (handled
via the FDINPUT) or I timeout. The big thing is that the timeout values
can vary. A GR_TIMEOUT event would be just what I need.

As soon as all the copyright notices are in place and I get the ok from
my boss I will send you a tarball and instructions.
