Chris,
Laszlo, in his post of Tue Jun 12, 2007 10:40 pm called "High resolution timer II", shows how to use the central processor's clock to obtain timing that is more accurate than SetTimer can provide.
On my system, SetTimer can "tick" only in multiples of about 15 milliseconds. The approach in Laszlo's message can "tick" in multiplies as small as 1 millisecond, a huge improvement for many applications.
Could this high-resolution approach be made into a formal AutoHotkey feature, exactly analogous to SetTimer, so that this approach would be much easier to use? Perhaps the name Laszlo used for this approach, SetHRTimer, could be used for AutoHotkey.
Thank you for your good work.

I don't see point in that when such feature already exists using includable script, that is IMO, easy to use.
AHK developement should not be concentrated around features that 1 or 2 ppl will eventualy use while there are litterlay hundreeds of other things that are useful for broad audience, directly or via modules that utilise such features.
