I've tried to implement timer methods similar to those in JavaScript using kotlin.concurrent.timer.

fun setInterval(millis: Long,
                action: () -> Unit) = timer("setInterval", true, millis, millis) { action() }

fun setTimeout(millis: Long,
               action: () -> Unit) = timer("setTimeout", true, millis, 0) { action() }

fun setImmediate(millis: Long,
                 action: () -> Unit) = timer("setImmediate", true, 0, 0) { action() }

Unfortunately timer() requires the period parameter to be > 0 (i.e. the last 0 in setTimout() and setImmediate()).
