                                             TIMER [DUAL MODE]
     
     NAME TIMER - Starts a timer.
     
     SYNTAX
     
     timer [/start name| /stop name] [-q|/q]
     
     USAGE
     
     Timer is  used to  time time periods. It can be used like
     runtime command,  but  time  counting  is  more  relaxed.
     Runtime counts  one command.  Timers can  be started  and
     stopped at  any given moment. Timers are started with the
     /start command,  whitch is  follewed by  the timer  name.
     Timer names  can be up to 24 chars. It is very convenient
     to use the name of the command as the timer command also.
     
     Timers are  stopped with  the /stop  command.  Under  DOS
     timers  are  stored  in  a  file.  The  default  name  is
     c:\timersrv.dat,  but   it  can   be  changed   with  the
     TIMERSERV-environment variable.  Under OS/2  there  is  a
     separate server-process,  which is automatically started.
     You can  however start  it also  yourself.  This  can  be
     useful, if you want to run servers as detached processes(
     e.g detach  timersrv). There  is a -Q command to stop the
     server process. Under DOS it removes the timer-file.
