I remember seeing this before, but my memory does not serve me well. I need to implement a nap(2) similar to that found in SCO UNIX and SCO XENIX under AT&T Unix which allows me to sleep < 1 sec. I have both SCO and AT&T UNIX for i386. AT&T UNIX has no such animal. I was going to fake it by using a streams device and use its timeout ability in the POLL(2) but it is a kludgy hack I prefer not to put my name on. Besides I think the stream would have to be a real physical device and I don't have one I can just give up) If anyone has done this before and can point me at a starting place, or give me a short outline of what is required I would really appreciate it. Email would be best as I don't get to read news consistently these days. Probably how i missed the solution (if there was one) in the first place. -- Mark J. DeFilippis UUCP: uunet!adelphi!markd
