NAME
       al_create_timer - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS

              #include <allegro5/allegro.h>

              ALLEGRO_TIMER *al_create_timer(double speed_secs)

DESCRIPTION
       Allocates and initializes a timer.  If successful, a pointer to a new
       timer object is returned, otherwise NULL is returned.  speed_secs is in
       seconds per "tick", and must be positive.  The new timer is initially
       stopped.

       Usage note: typical granularity is on the order of microseconds, but
       with some drivers might only be milliseconds.
