If I may, since I am an OSX user [1] [2] ,
I cast my "vote" here. ;)
[1] I am planning to use the 'timeout' CLI as part of a
simple PVR app in conjunction with HDHomeRun® tuners.
1s-resolution is plenty, if I can also trust the
age-old 'at'/'cron' mechanisms, too. ;)
[2] OT: I am also planning to "jump ship", and have
posted a big write-up on why I've decided this on
the pan-users list (my current main project):
<https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/pan-users/2011-07/msg00043.html>
I'd like to invite anyone to comment in that thread.
