I'm using NS-2 version 2.29 on a Fedora Linux PC. I'm using a MAC
protocol, and I want to find the average delay time. I heard that I need
to do that with changes to the C++ code, rather than a tcl script.

I want to write the enqueue packet time to file1, and dequeue packet time
to file2. Then, with a perl script, subtract the times in file1 from file2
to get the delay times. But I'm not sure where to make the changes to the
C++ code (I tried modifying queue.cc; See below), and I'm having a problem
using Scheduler::instance().clock() when writing the time to a file
because I get arbitrarily large numbers and negative numbers.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark
