Re: RE : CMS REXX Wait

[Tom Duerbusch]

CP SLEEP will put the entire Linux machine in sleep mode.  Not a good idea.

Since you are using Linux, you must be using Regina as the rexx
supervisor.  If you look in the rexx manual that comes with Regina, the
SLEEP function is implimented in the form of:
rc = sleep(60)

That will just put the rexx task to sleep.

I'd say CP SLEEP but it is a bit limited. And while it is a bit of rude,
this is very flexible
