Subject:	Suggested contrib package for djgpp

It would be really nice if someone could write a package that would  
allow an arbitrary C routine to be called 60 times a second (during  
the VBL interrupt).  I noticed that timer interrupts are mentioned  
briefly in the docs, and they seem to be implemented for profiling,  
but I don't know how to access them

I would write it myself, but my DOS documentation is extremely poor  
and all the vaguely related examples I have seem to rely on  
TurboCisms.  I don't have access to any compiler but gcc.

Anyway, it _seems_ like this would be really easy for a DOS wizard,  
and would make a useful contribution to djgpp.

If anyone wants to throw this together, I'm willing to help in any  
way that I can.
