        Such should only require some data structure for the event
timing, and the externally created process to be started (path to a
script file, perhaps). But the original question seemed to be assuming
diverse internally coded processes... Okay, I suppose timed one-shots
could still be applied to internal code modules -- and those could be
(very rough description here) handled as a sort of call-back from the
timer to plain procedures.
