The timer object is a small object library file which enables the execution of a call back proc / method to be called sometime in the future. The object was developed in a none blocking structure so when used under a TK environment the GUI will not hang. The object is provided with methods to start / stop a pending scheduled task. If nothing else this object can be used to learn how take advantage of the background and callback process mechanism of Tcl/Tk.
