NAME

       extimer - Using the timer (delays and interrupts). Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       Example extimer

DESCRIPTION

       This  program demonstrates how to use the timer routines.  These can be a bit of a pain, because you have
       to be sure you lock all the memory that is used inside your interrupt handlers.  The first  part  of  the
       example  shows a basic use of timing using the blocking function rest(). The second part shows how to use
       three timers with different frequencies in a non blocking way.
