Timer function

Hi,

I plan to write a software metronome and I wonder what would
be the best 
way to get a timer precise enough for that purpose ?

The other problem is what's the best way to make a short
sound 
(eventually corresponding to a note ...)

Thanks for your help.

Fred

I wrote one using just g_timeout_add(), and that seems to me
to work
well enough.

I've put the source code up at
http
://www.ossau.uklinux.net/guile/metronome.scm, in case
you'd like
to look and don't mind reading Scheme.

Indeed.  I don't have a solution for this yet; would be
interested to
hear if you find a nice one.  Currently my metronome is just
visual.
