Hi,
-Sleep- will pause the program for the time you specify and commence at the
end of that period without user intervention. If that is what you want..
Hope this helps

Subject: st: RE: Pausing a command in runtime
I am not sure why you want to stop something that is moving very slowly,
but
if I am debugging something I sometimes slap in an
edit
command line. My reason for that is so that I can peek at the variables
in question (and I then often wish I had added variable labels to my
temporary variables to be clear on what is what, but that's a different
story).
Anyway, a side-effect of that is clearly that the program pauses until
I'm done with the Editor, so that or -browse- may fit the bill.

(Does -pause- not fit the bill in any case? I don't use it, although
that means nothing, except that I don't use it.)

I have a number of ML commands that require several hours to execute. I
know about the pause command that can be written into a do file, but is
there a way to pause such a command in runtime?
