Mace,
I made a quick test. Until 'read events' timer seems not to be fired but polls its events and as 'read events' is encountered do all at once. Here is the code I used :

oForm=CreateObject('Form')
oForm.addobject('myTimer','myTimer')
start=seconds()
do while seconds()-start < 10 && Here timer seems to poll its events
enddo
oForm.Show
read events

define class myTimer as Timer
	Interval = 2000
	procedure timer
		_screen.print('Timer fired at '+transform(seconds()))
	endproc
enddefine
