.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.I Sleep
|
||||
suspends the current process for the number
|
||||
of milliseconds specified by the argument.
|
||||
The actual suspension time may be a little more or less than
|
||||
the requested time. If
|
||||
.I millisecs
|
||||
is 0, the process
|
||||
gives up the CPU if another process is waiting to run, returning
|
||||
immediately if not.
|
||||
Sleep returns \-1 if interrupted, 0 otherwise.
|
||||
.PP
|
||||
.I Alarm
|
||||
causes an
|
||||
.B alarm
|
||||
note (see
|
||||
.IR notify (2))
|
||||
to be sent to the invoking process after the number of milliseconds
|
||||
given by the argument.
|
||||
Successive calls to
|
||||
.I alarm
|
||||
reset the alarm clock.
|
||||
A zero argument clears the alarm.
|
||||
The return value is the amount of time previously remaining in
|
||||
the alarm clock.
