Support for the TI variable introduced a dependency on the refresh rate. In general, interrupts are invoked at 50Hz on PAL (European) systems and 60Hz on NTSC (US) systems. A way must be found to standardize the handling of this difference, so that it is possible to write a BASIC program without depending on this detail.

It would be nice if ugBasic introduces a platform-dependent constant containing the number of clock ticks (cf TI variable) per second. ==> TI_PER_SEC constant This is just like the CLOCKS_PER_SEC in C.
