[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Higher resolution timer?

feuling@astroatc.UUCP (Lindsay Feuling) (07/14/90)

I'm trying to find out, if it's possible, to get a higher resolution
clock out of DOS than the measley 18.2 ticks per second.  I really want
to be able to do this without adding more hardware since all of the
card slots may be used, so a way to do this with software would be nice.

I got a hold of some code that someone wrote using Turbo C, but it
has no (or not enough) documentation on what it's doing to the I/O ports.
And also, I am using Microsoft C 5.1 and Assembler, and I tried to 
convert the code over, but without documentation it's useless.

Thanks in advance.

P.S. Doesn't anyone document code?
