<TITLE>sleep</TITLE> <body bgcolor="#ffffcc"> <hr> <pre> <h3>SLEEP(3) Linux Programmer's Manual SLEEP(3) </h3> <h3>NAME </h3> sleep - Sleep for the specified number of seconds <h3>SYNOPSIS </h3> #include <unistd.h> unsigned int sleep(unsigned int seconds); <h3>DESCRIPTION </h3> sleep() makes the current process sleep until seconds sec- onds have elapsed or a signal arrives which is not ignored. <h3>RETURN VALUE </h3> Zero if the requested time has elapsed, or the number of seconds left to sleep. <h3>CONFORMS TO </h3> POSIX.1 <h3>BUGS </h3> sleep() may be implemented using SIGALRM; mixing calls to alarm() and sleep() is a bad idea. Using longjmp() from a signal handler or modifying the handling of SIGALRM while sleeping will cause undefined results. </pre> <hr> <h3>SEE ALSO </h3><p> <a href=signal.htm>signal</a>, <a href=alarm.htm>alarm</a>, <pre> <h3>GNU April 7, 1993 1 </h3> </pre> <P> <hr> <p> <center> <table border=2 width=80%> <tr align=center> <td width=25%> <a href=../index.htm>Top</a> </td><td width=25%> <a href=../master_index.html>Master Index</a> </td><td width=25%> <a href=../SYNTAX/keywords.html>Keywords</a> </td><td width=25%> <a href=../FUNCTIONS/index.htm>Functions</a> </td> </tr> </table> </center> <p> <hr> This manual page was brought to you by <i>mjl_man V-2.0</i>
