No I did not rename the file. However, when doing the 'make' it attempts

calls the lalarm.so.
So according to what you wrote I renamed the lalarm.so (its original
name) to alarm.so. Now it works.
I should have pointed you to
http://lua-users.org/lists/lua-l/2006-10/msg00211.html
which explains the procedure to make my 5.0 libraries work for 5.1.
(There's a link to that message in my library web page.)
Yes, that would have worked. You possibly might consider adding that to
the website or the README.
After playing with it to learn it how to use it, I discover it isn't
what I was looking for. I really needed a delay or sleep function.
In Squeak we have a delay method to do this. I could find such. So I
decided to look at what Python calls it, which is sleep. So I searched
the group for sleep. Found Diego's socket.sleep and also a mention for
helper threads which I haven't researched yet.
Thanks for the help.
