Is there any way of accessing the CPU clock from a program?  I'm
assuming that there IS a clock chip buried in my calc's guts
somewhere...

I have made a couple clock and event-timer programs in Basic and would
like to convert them to Asm.  They use loops to get a fairly accurate
idea of hours, minutes, and seconds.  I could use loops in the Asm
version, but I was wondering if there was an easier way.  Can you count
interrupt cycles from a program?  They are pretty constant...
