If you are using a PC to generate steps, you can use the "TIMER" function and
some "known number" of pulses, and N/T will be the stepping-rate per second.
In BASIC:

70 T1=TIMER
80 FOR N=1 TO 10000:CALL STEP:NEXT ("STEP" is a little machine-code
subroutine
90 T2=TIMER patch which causes a
pulse-output)
100 T=T2-T1
110 F=10000/T
120 PRINT "RATE ="F" PER SECOND."

Sorry, but I are too ignernt to tell you how to do this in DOS or any other
"high level" language.
