I want to port some turbo prolog code to Mercury.

The code was written on a DOS 6/i386 system to do real-time control (don't
       panic - it's non-commercial general interest stuff) .

The code requires elapsed time, so the ElapsedRealTime part of
       'time__times(ProcessorTime,ElapsedRealTime,IO_state,IO_state)'
       appears ideal.



Can those in the know confirm that ElapsedRealTime delivers genuine
       centiseconds as opposed to an in interpolation

of some larger clock interval, as was the case with the DOS/386 platform.

Is there a better way of getting a more precise time interval?



Thanks,

Ian
