"set_ts/get_ts" are two useful tools for obtaining time within a script.

"set_ts" sets a time structure to a local variable within a script.

"get_ts" obtains a specified time structure from a local variable set
with "set_ts" and computes the duration.

The pairs usage is explained with the docu-script "tstst".

A more sophisticated example is "DM_bgpk_spk" which is part of the bgpk
project from here:-

"set_td" and "get_td" are similar variants in the "td" directory which
make use of the timer device. The pair you choose to use is a matter
of personal preference and circumstance suitability. 

The ARP directory contains variants suitable for "ROM1.x+".
