DELAY(10.2)							   DELAY(10.2)

NAME
       delay, microdelay, addclock0link - small delays, clock interrupts

SYNOPSIS
       void delay(int n)

       void microdelay(int n)

       void addclock0link(void(*clockf)(void))

DESCRIPTION
       Delay  busy  waits  for	n milliseconds, forced to be at least one mil‐
       lisecond.

       Microdelay is similar, but busy waits for n microseconds.

       For delays on the order of clock ticks, tsleep (see  sleep(10.2))  pro‐
       vides a better alternative to the busy waiting of these routines.

       Addclock0link adds clockf to a list of functions to be executed at each
       clock interrupt.

SEE ALSO
       sleep(10.2)
