% 
% GetSecsTick returns the fraction of a second which is a tick of the GetSecs clock.

% 3/15/02  awi  wrote it.
% 4/02/02  awi  Changed the return value to the clock period from the clock frequency. 
%               Changed the name from "GetTimeBase" to "GetSecsTick".
%               Added script provided by Denis for OS9 version of the Psychtoolbox
% 7/10/04  awi  Changed for OSX by adding GetBusTicks and GetBusTicksTick
%               to see also. Replaced streq with AssertMex and isOS9.
% 10/4/05  awi  Note here cosmetic changes by dgp between 7/10/04 and 10/4/05. 

% On Windows and OSX this is only a help file and should not execute.
