I am currently writing an application to time user responses to 
screen images in milliseconds. My problem is that the TimeMgr
section of inside mac is unclear.

I very much need advice on how to use the time manager; I
think most of my confusion revolves around the fact that I
can't seem to figure out how the QElem structure is organized.

How do I define a task? If I want to know how many milliseconds
are going by, what do I do? What sorts of side-effects will
there be on the machine when I play around with the interrupts
like this?

Does anyone have any PD source code they would part with?
I would prefer C, but I can read Pascal.

Thanks in advance.
