In answer to my own question, I guess you could base what the sub did on
the timer name.
So you could set one timer per day, hour, and minute that did different
things based on the name of the timer..
use strict;
use Win32::GUI;
my $mw = Win32::GUI::Window->new(
-name => 'mw',
-size => [400, 400],
-pos => [200, 200],
-onTerminate => sub{return -1;},
-onTimer => sub{my $name=$_[1];MyTimers($name);},
);
$mw->AddTimer('Slow', 2000);
$mw->AddTimer('Medium', 1000);
$mw->AddTimer('Quick', 500);
$mw->AddTimer('Very Quick', 250);
$mw->Show;
Win32::GUI::Dialog;
sub MyTimers{
my $timer=shift;
if($timer=~/^slow$/is){
print "running slow stuff\n";
}
elsif($timer=~/^medium$/is){
print "running medium stuff\n";
}
elsif($timer=~/^quick$/is){
print "running quick stuff\n";
}
elsif($timer=~/^very quick$/is){
print "running very quick stuff\n";
}
}

Yes it does. So, I guess I do not see its usefulness.
In your example the same sub would be kicked off multiple times at the
same time, right? How is this useful?
Milliseconds Timer Runs
250 once
500 twice
750 once
1000 three times
2000 four times

>-onTimer => \&T1_Timer,
The onTime is the event handler for all timers for a specific window. In
the
example below, we're adding 4 timers to the window. When the timer is
fired,
it's name is printed out. Does that help?
Cheers,
