ABOUT DELAY.EXE
DELAY.EXE is a program from the kit, PIECES, by Another
Company. With PIECES, you can create just about anything for
IBM-compatible computing. No programming skill is necessary.
See end of this file for more information about PIECES.
What It Does
DELAY is used to stall presentation execution, for use in
between display of pictures, sound effects, etc.
How To Use It
Delay requires one parameter, an integer representing amount
of time in milliseconds. 1000 milliseconds equals one
second. So, for a delay of 1/2 second, you would type:
DELAY.EXE 500
at the DOS prompt, in a batch file, or in a PIECES script
file.
Additional Information
DELAY will not change the currently displayed image, and
works in all video modes. Delay runs at the same speed on all
systems from the slowest XT-compatibles to the fastest '486s
and Pentiums.
About Pieces
PIECES is a shareware disk containing several small programs
that can be combined to do a variety of tasks with
a super-professional look and feel. No programming experience
is needed. PIECES can be expanded to incorporate your
favorite programs as well, so it's possibilities for making
and enhancing pictures shows, text presentations, multimedia,
electronic catalogs, teaching materials, executable software,
games, shareware and more are limitless!
You can register as many or as few PIECES as you wish.
Registered users are licensed to copy and distribute the
PIECES along with their finished products. Unregistered
users may copy and distribute the complete unmodified PIECES
package, but may not use only portions of it until purchase
of registration. Use of PIECES beyond 30 days requires
registration.
Most shareware PIECES programs have a "unregistered"
notice which pops up randomly, approximately every 200 times.
This is removed from the registered versions, and also saves
as much as 3,000 bytes disk space per program.
This software is copyrighted by Jeff Napier of Another
Company, and distributed by Gary Smith of OEC Systems.
