Hello Nicolas,

Ok, that's pretty enough for my needs... BTW timer in neko could be
implemented like
function setTimeout(action, timeout) {
   neko.Thread.create(function (t) {
     neko.Sys.sleep(t); action();
   }, timeout);
}
with the only problem that action() would have to invoke the code in
another thread... not sure if it is safe.
