al_start_timer(3)                                            al_start_timer(3)

NAME
       al_start_timer - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS

              #include <allegro5/allegro.h>

              void al_start_timer(ALLEGRO_TIMER *timer)


DESCRIPTION
       Start the timer specified.  From then, the timer's counter will
       increment at a constant rate, and it will begin generating events.
       Starting a timer that is already started does nothing.  Starting a
       timer that was stopped will reset the timer's counter, effectively
       restarting the timer from the beginning.
