//	This program opens the '/dev/nic' device-file created by our

//	counting each timer-interrupt that is generated by the 8139;
//	then, after sleeping for two seconds, it closes tha file, to
//	stop any further timer-interrupts.  The driver's outputs the
//	number of timer-interrupts that were triggered while asleep.
