timer = every(ms[, installTimer, uninstallTimer, now])
create an event emitter that emits every ms.
optionally provide your own install / uninstall functions for timers.
install functions are expected to return a handle which will then be given to the
uninstall function when the timer is destroyed.
you may also provide your own now function -- it defaults to Date.now().
timer.paused() -> Boolean
returns whether or not the timer is paused.
timer.pause()
pauses the timer. the timer will not emit events while paused.
timer.resume()
resumes the timer. the timer will start emitting events again.
it will not emit the difference between pause and resume on the next step.
timer.rate() -> currentRateMS
emit the current rate in milliseconds.
timer.rate(rate) -> currentRateMS
set the current rate in milliseconds.
timer.destroy()
uninstalls the timer function.
