Function DESQpause - give up CPU time
Syntax void DESQpause(void);
Prototype in multihk.h
Remarks this function will free the remaining CPU cycles
under DESQview, Topview and Taskview. I have tested
this function only under DESQview, where it frees
the program's time slice. If your program will just
sit idle and chew up CPU time, calling this
function frees whatever remains of its cpu share.
No error checking is performed.
Return value nothing.

Example ... /* code fragment */
while (bioskey(1) == 0) /* wait for keypress */
DESQpause(); /* w/o wasting cpu time */
