[fpc-pascal] Timer for Windows/Linux

["Fabrício F. Kammer"]

Hi all,

I need to implement a routine on my sofware to be executed each 5 minutes.

I'm using just FPC (without lazarus) becuase my software will run as a 
console application and because I don't have graphical inteface on the 
machine that I'm using.

How can I make a routine that works on both OS (Linux/Windows) like a 
TTimer of the Delphi?

Regards,
