extimer(3) - Linux man page
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.
