-.TH Tcl_CreateTimerHandler 3 7.5 Tcl "Tcl Library Procedures"
-.BS
-.SH NAME
-Tcl_CreateTimerHandler, Tcl_DeleteTimerHandler \- call a procedure at a given time
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-\fB#include <tcl.h>\fR
-.sp
-Tcl_TimerToken
-\fBTcl_CreateTimerHandler\fR(\fImilliseconds, proc, clientData\fR)
-.sp
-\fBTcl_DeleteTimerHandler\fR(\fItoken\fR)
-.SH ARGUMENTS
-.AS Tcl_TimerToken milliseconds
-.AP int milliseconds in
-How many milliseconds to wait before invoking \fIproc\fR.
-.AP Tcl_TimerProc *proc in
-Procedure to invoke after \fImilliseconds\fR have elapsed.
-.AP ClientData clientData in
-Arbitrary one-word value to pass to \fIproc\fR.
-.AP Tcl_TimerToken token in
-Token for previously created timer handler (the return value
-from some previous call to \fBTcl_CreateTimerHandler\fR).

-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.PP
-\fBTcl_CreateTimerHandler\fR arranges for \fIproc\fR to be
-invoked at a time \fImilliseconds\fR milliseconds in the
-future.
-The callback to \fIproc\fR will be made by \fBTcl_DoOneEvent\fR,
-so \fBTcl_CreateTimerHandler\fR is only useful in programs that
-dispatch events through \fBTcl_DoOneEvent\fR or through Tcl commands
-such as \fBvwait\fR.
-The call to \fIproc\fR may not be made at the exact time given by
-\fImilliseconds\fR: it will be made at the next opportunity
-after that time. For example, if \fBTcl_DoOneEvent\fR is not
-called until long after the time has elapsed, or if there
-are other pending events to process before the call to
-\fIproc\fR, then the call to \fIproc\fR will be delayed.
-.PP
-\fIProc\fR should have arguments and return value that match
-the type \fBTcl_TimerProc\fR:
-.CS
-typedef void Tcl_TimerProc(ClientData \fIclientData\fR);
-.CE
-The \fIclientData\fR parameter to \fIproc\fR is a
-copy of the \fIclientData\fR argument given to
-\fBTcl_CreateTimerHandler\fR when the callback
-was created. Typically, \fIclientData\fR points to a data
-structure containing application-specific information about
-what to do in \fIproc\fR.
-.PP
-\fBTcl_DeleteTimerHandler\fR may be called to delete a
-previously created timer handler. It deletes the handler
-indicated by \fItoken\fR so that no call to \fIproc\fR
-will be made; if that handler no longer exists
-(e.g. because the time period has already elapsed and \fIproc\fR
-has been invoked then \fBTcl_DeleteTimerHandler\fR does nothing.
-The tokens returned by \fBTcl_CreateTimerHandler\fR never have
-a value of NULL, so if NULL is passed to \fBTcl_DeleteTimerHandler\fR
-then the procedure does nothing.

-.SH KEYWORDS
-callback, clock, handler, timer
