We use option 1 in codelock to create a binary command file called DELAY from
the following ASCII file:
-- Usage: RUN Delay USING <time in seconds to nearest millisecond>
-- Example: "RUN Delay USING 3.5" will pause for 3.5 seconds
SET V x REAL=.%1
SET V TimeFormat=(CVAL('TIME'))
SET TIME FORMAT HH:MM:SS.SSS
SET V Start TIME=.#TIME,Delay INTEGER=(NINT(.x*1000))
WHILE #TIME<(.Start+.Delay) THEN
ENDWHILE
SET TIME FORMAT &TimeFormat
CLEAR V Start,Delay,TimeFormat,x
RETURN

Subject: [RBASE-L] - PAUSE for less than one second.
I want to pause each time through a loop, but only for 250 milliseconds (a
quarter second).
PAUSE FOR works fine for whole numbers of seconds. Is there any way to pause
for something shorter than a second?
