The answer to my "I always thought a timer is more comparable to an
interrupt or signal than a polling loop." was "That is a very common
misconception." which I still refuse as being a correct answer.
I misunderstood that you meant a Delphi TTimer. And I wanted to point
out that many Delphi users think that a TTimer works like an interrupt
and that of course is untrue.
