You could set the script you want to run in the background, capture the process id and then set a timer running. It always feels a bit spaghetti when i do this sort of thing though.
I hope that this helps. It may take a bit of trial and error to get the exact process right. Try it with a script2 that just contains a sleep command itself.
Any better suggestions? I would like to know too as I'm not that comfortable with what I've coded above.

After my previous thread, I think I found out what causes the long delays.
I run this program on several Linux computers, and the sometimes (after the file with the arrays becomes big) the fwrite takes between 100 ms to 900 ms.
This is very bad for me, as I want a timer to halt each 30 ms.... ... (5 Replies)

sdl_settimer
SDL_SetTimer(3) SDL API Reference SDL_SetTimer(3)NAME
SDL_SetTimer - Set a callback to run after the specified number of milliseconds has elapsed.
SYNOPSIS
#include "SDL.h"
int SDL_SetTimer(Uint32 interval, SDL_TimerCallback callback);
CALLBACK
/* Function prototype for the timer callback function */ typedef Uint32 (*SDL_TimerCallback)(Uint32 interval);
DESCRIPTION
Set a callback to run after the specified number of milliseconds has elapsed. The callback function is passed the current timer interval
and returns the next timer interval. If the returned value is the same as the one passed in, the periodic alarm continues, otherwise a new
alarm is scheduled.
To cancel a currently running timer, call SDL_SetTimer(0, NULL);
The timer callback function may run in a different thread than your main constant, and so shouldn't call any functions from within itself.
The maximum resolution of this timer is 10 ms, which means that if you request a 16 ms timer, your callback will run approximately 20 ms
later on an unloaded system. If you wanted to set a flag signaling a frame update at 30 frames per second (every 33 ms), you might set a
timer for 30 ms (see example below).
If you use this function, you need to pass SDL_INIT_TIMER to SDL_Init().
Note:
This function is kept for compatibility but has been superseded by the new timer functions SDL_AddTimer and SDL_RemoveTimer which
support multiple timers.
EXAMPLES
SDL_SetTimer((33/10)*10, my_callback);
