Well, yeah, the C sleep function. I think it's in unistd.h

man sleep

[klamath]

man sleep

... would give you the manpage for sleep(1) - the utility. You're looking for man 3 sleep -- and yeah, it's in unistd.h

Thanks for checking/confirming that.

im aware of the sleep function available with unistd.h. unfortunately, im coding a program for my friend's business, and the code must be , *gasp*, windows compatible... sorry i forgot to mention that little detail http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/biggrin.gif

im using borland to compile it, and ive done a little research and found that i need to include either dos.h or time.h, but neither seem to work. all i get is call to undefined function 'sleep' in main.
any ideas?

edit: also thought it would be worthwhile mentioning that when using dos.h, sleep() works when compiling c code, but not c++ code...

Well, I'm not sure if this will help or not because I'm working with VC++ (I know, I know, it's pure evil, but what can I do?) Anyway, the Sleep() function is in winbase.h so you might want to check for that file.

nope, didnt work... thanks anyway http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/biggrin.gif

any other ideas?
