Hey hello people ! I'm new so be nice ;-) 
I was trying to use boost.timer but it didnt work like i wanted :-)
So I made this class wich is very simple and does exactly what one would 
think it does.

// start timer.hpp
#include <ctime>
class timer
{
public:
timer();
unsigned int elapsed(); // returns elapsed time since ctor or restart()
void restart(); // restarts the timer

private:
unsigned int start_t;

};

timer::timer() : start_t(std::time(0)) { }

unsigned int timer::elapsed()
{
return (std::time(0) - start_t);
}

void timer::restart()
{
start_t = std::time(0);
}
// end timer.hpp

As you can see its very clean and simple to use enjoy ! ...maybe put it in 
boost timer ;-D ?
