MISC OBJECT
(Integer first, Integer interval, Integer repeat, String id)

This function creates a new timer for the object.  The first EV_TIMER event
will occur after 'first' seconds, the remainder at 'interval' seconds
thereafter.  The 'repeat' count can be zero, which specifies that the 
event will repeat until it is deleted. 'id' is supplied back to the
event as the first parameter. The second parameter is the number of times
the timer has expired. Multiple events can have the same id string if
necessary.
