<h3>Description</h3>
This is provided only to emulate the Forms Timer widget. It works by
making a timeout callback every 1/5 second. This is wasteful and
inaccurate if you just want something to happen a fixed time in the
future. You should directly call <a
href="#add_timeout"><tt>Fl::add_timeout()</tt></a> instead.

<h4><a name="Fl_Timer.Fl_Timer">Fl_Timer::Fl_Timer(uchar type, int x, int y, int w, int h, const char *label = 0)</a></h4>
Creates a new <tt>Fl_Timer</tt> widget using the given type, position, size, and
label string. The <tt>type</tt> parameter can be any of the following symbolic
constants:
<ul>
<li><tt>FL_NORMAL_TIMER</tt> - The timer just does the callback
and displays the string "Timer" in the widget.
<li><tt>FL_VALUE_TIMER</tt> - The timer does the callback and
displays the current timer value in the widget.
<li><tt>FL_HIDDEN_TIMER</tt> - The timer just does the callback
and does not display anything.
</ul>
<h4><a name="Fl_Timer.~Fl_Timer">virtual Fl_Timer::~Fl_Timer()</a></h4>
Destroys the timer and removes the timeout.
<h4><a name="Fl_Timer.direction">char direction() const<br>
void direction(char d)</a></h4>
Gets or sets the direction of the timer. If the direction is zero then
the timer will count up, otherwise it will count down from the initial
<tt>value()</tt>.
<h4><a name="Fl_Timer.suspended">char suspended() const<br>
void suspended(char d)</a></h4>
Gets or sets whether the timer is suspended.
<h4><a name="Fl_Timer.value">float value() const<br>
void value(float)</a></h4>
Gets or sets the current timer value.
