I forgot to say that this version does not solve bug 75 for non  
Windows, so don't use 'time' or 'convert' during timing.  It will  
mess up the timing measurement.

To put it in positive sense, timing on Windows is not affected by bug  
75.  Certain commands and functions mess up the seconds, milliseconds  
and so on.

That bug is resolved as "isn't fixable", so maybe it should be called  
"interesting feature 75".

That is fixed for the high res timer plugin from Dar's Lab on Windows.
