Try this:
------------------------------------
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
usleep(usecs)
u_long usecs;
{
struct timeval tv;
tv.tv_sec = usecs / 1000000L;
tv.tv_usec = usecs % 1000000L;
(void)select(0, 0, 0, 0, &tv);
}
------------------------------------
By the way, this was not written by me, I just grabbed it from another HP
machine.
