[Gambas-user] Timer question

[nando]

One way to do this is to use an
  Int kptimer and set it to 10 every keypress.

Inside the timer (if set at 1 second ticks)

  IF kptimer >= 0 then DEC kptimer   'decrement
  if kptimer = 0 then 'timeout 10 seconds..do something.
  'kptimer will stay at -1 after that until reset to 10.

So, the timer control always runs.
