Tk_Sleep(3Tk)Tk_Sleep(3Tk)NAME
Tk_Sleep - delay execution for a given number of milliseconds
SYNOPSIS
#include <tk.h>
Tk_Sleep(ms)ARGUMENTSintms(in)
Number of milliseconds to sleep.
DESCRIPTION
This procedure delays the calling process by the number of milliseconds
given by the ms parameter, and returns after that time has elapsed. It
is typically used for things like flashing a button, where the delay is
short and the application needn't do anything while it waits. For longer
delays where the application needs to respond to other events during the
delay, the procedure Tk_CreateTimerHandler should be used instead of
Tk_Sleep.
KEYWORDS
sleep, time, wait
