/*  Multiple_Timers.c
 *
 *  This program is designed to do multiple (3) time requests using one
 *  OpenDevice.  It creates a message port - TimerMP, creates an
 *  extended I/O structure of type timerequest named TimerIO[0] and
 *  then uses that to open the device.  The other two time request
 *  structures - TimerIO[1] and TimerIO[2] - are created using AllocMem
 *  and then copying TimerIO[0] into them.  The tv_secs field of each
 *  structure is set and then three SendIOs are done with the requests.
 *  The program then goes into a while loop until all messages are received.
 *
 * Compile with SAS C 5.10  lc -b1 -cfistq -v -y -L
 *
 * Run from CLI only
