in reply to concurrent repeat events

You'll need to tell us more about the package you're using... What module provides the repeat() method?

    I'm using Perl 5.8 on an Windows platform.
    Tk provides a lightweight timer mechanism that can call
    back a procedure after a specified delay (specified
    in milliseconds) - the 'repeat' function.

    I'm trying to track different tasks with timers.
    I want to run concurrent timers, but it seems that
    when I try to run more than one 'repeat' function,
    only one runs, while the others are paused. I haven't
    seen any documentation that says it works for more
    than one.
