No there doesn't.  What is needed is to find out why the delay
code doesn't work on your machine.  The code works fine as-is
on my Xenix/286 system.

For starters, lets get the facts straight:
  + What version of the OS, and DS are you using?

  + Are you using termcap or terminfo?

  + What is the stack trace after the core dump?


I'm not trying to point a finger at Jay; but I think it is unreasonable to
assume we (the net at large) can debug programs without proper diagnostics.
"It doesn't work", or "It dumps core" is not much to go on.
