    00002  * \defgroup timer Timer library
    00003  *
    00004  * The timer library provides functions for setting, resetting and
    00005  * restarting timers, and for checking if a timer has expired. An
    00006  * application must "manually" check if its timers have expired; this
    00007  * is not done automatically.
    00008  *
    00009  * A timer is declared as a \c struct \c timer and all access to the
    00010  * timer is made by a pointer to the declared timer.
    00011  *
    00012  * \note The timer library uses the \ref clock "Clock library" to
    00013  * measure time. Intervals should be specified in the format used by
    00014  * the clock library.
    00015  *
