hi!
heck.. if you want to see how "timing" works, check out stuff like
"Cube3D" and "Burning" they have timing loops to ensure XXX fps.

case nilEvent:
// make sure the active window is the form
if (WinGetActiveWindow() == (WinHandle)FrmGetActiveForm()) {
globals->timerPointA = TimGetTicks();
// do stuff
globals->timerPointB = TimGetTicks();
// calculate the delay required
globals->timerDiff =
(globals->timerPointB - globals->timerPointA);
globals->evtTimeOut =
(globals->timerDiff > globals->ticksPerFrame)
? 0
: (globals->ticksPerFrame - globals->timerDiff);
}
processed = true;
break;

similar stuff is available in the demo source stuff from palm
