WAC ('What?! Another Timer?!') is a timer utility written in Rexx.

WAT is a simple timer that displays the time it was started, the time it
was stopped, and the elapsed time in between. It has virtually no CPU
overheads while it is active because the only time it does anything is
when you stop it or restart it.
You can run multiple copies of WAT, and optionally specify a port name
so that other ARexx programs can tell WAT when to start, stop, or quit.
WAT runs asynchronously, so you can run it without tying up a shell.
Best of all, WAT is written in Rexx, so if you want to add or change a
feature, you can do it easily. And it's free.
