## SYNOPSIS

1. os.sleep(seconds)
2. os.msleep(milliseconds)
3. os.usleep(microseconds)

## DESCRIPTION

Suspends the current program execution for the specified amount of time. The process will enter sleep state and will not consume any CPU time while it sleeps.

## NOTES

The process stops dead while sleeping. If you use any of the event processing commands, better use event:pause(), which keeps the message loop running during the delay.
