1. + 2.

Code:

var enabled = 1;
void my_special_timer_function()
{
    while (1)
    {
        while (!enabled)
            wait(1);
        while (enabled)
        {
            // Do whatever you want to do every second...
            wait(-1)
        }
    }
}

    }
}

you forgot "wait(1);" for the first while...

@milaz: I don't get it, sorry. Where is that wait(1) required?

@milaz: while, for and if don't require the { } braces when there is only one instruction that should be included in the according case.
