linux: sleep() or usleep() #include <unistd.h>
windows: Sleep() #include <time.h>
windows: Sleep() #include <time.h>
I'm really sorry about bringing this up again but the Sleep(); function isnt working for me. i included ctime. could someone give me an example of code for this that works? (I'm using the dev-cpp bloodshed compiler)
thanx...

that msdn crud says 'windows.h', but i was sure u didnt need to include all that garbage just for sleep...
Sleep is a kernel32.dll function. All exports of kernel32.dll are typically associated with windows.h.

#incldue <windows.h>
