Yes,like all other program languages,you can use "sleep" for the delay. see "perldoc -f sleep". if you want to get a sleep of milliseconds,you can use the four arguments version "select",like: # sleep of 250 milliseconds select(undef, undef, undef, 0.25); -- mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.arcor.de/jeffpang/ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
