Autoit Timer?

[esfalk 0]

Is there a function for timing a process? For example, in my _Busy function shown here; I'd like the entire loop to timeout, rather than just one command. Can I start a timer at the beginning of the UDF, and check it every time through against a pre-set ending point?

... or is this something I'm gonna have to make myself using FileGetTime, some crazy math, and a maze of conditional statements?

Thanks
