`sleep .sec.' |
Cause Gri to sleep for the indicated number of seconds, which should be
a positive integer. This command is ignored if `.sec.
' is zero or
negative, and the value of `.sec.
' is first rounded to the nearest
integer.
Normally, this command is used only by the developer, as a way to slow down Gri execution, to allow easier monitoring for debugging purposes. Beware: it is tricky to kill a sleeping job!
