[comp.sys.amiga.tech] Delays without locking machine

Classic_-_Concepts@cup.portal.com (03/13/89)

    Could someone suggest ways of coding Delays without using the DELAY
function which locks up the machine.  I am using Aztec 3.6.     - Dan

Make sure you do Delay(50L) rather than Delay(50) if you are not compiling
with the +l option, or else Delay() will end up getting a random number which
will probably be larger than you want to wait...
