RE: disabling event functions

Sorry for a "side track" comment, but this reminded
me to one of my math teachers who once talked about
the number zero.  He was debating whether it was a
negative or positive number, and concluded that it
was more likely a positive number than negative.

I am not a mathematician, so I am not going to be able
explain any of it, and unfortunately I don't remember
anything else about his discussion on this subject.
I only remember that there might be reasons to consider
zero to be a positive or negative number...  :-)

Geoffrey,
    Of course you are right, and that is unfortunate. However, as
tolerances must be positive, it would be possible to indicate that a
non-positive tolerance is ignored. In that way
    @(timer(0, 1n, 0, 0))
could represent a disabled timer function with default tolerances.
