Pascal

[speedlemon]

I just got a copy of Dev-Pascal, and I was wondering if there is a command similar to QBasic's sleep? Thanks in advance.

It's not standard, but it does work apparently.

You mean the readln(); command? It waits for a keypress...

kevin, i tried that, but it waits for you to press enter.
this is another way i figured it out
i dont know what crt is, but i saw it in an example

Code:

program whatever
uses crt;

procedure waitforkey()
begin
repeat;
until keypressed
end.

begin
writeln('press any key');
waitforkey;
writeln('you pressed it');
end.

CRT is the console unit (under win32). It has all the console functions in it.
