This uses sixtieths of a second as a parameter instead of seconds (so pass it a 60 instead of a 1). It does not use signals but the kernals sleep-wakeup mechanism. If your having problems or want something with a little finer granularity you might want to try it. I never understood why it wasn't part of unix from the start.
