- i need to make my simple c program(to run in unix env)
- wait for a while before it terminates.
- what would be the best way to accomplish this?
- right now, i am using the pause() function, but that is
- not very efficient as i need to send a signal to it to
- resume the execution(and eventually terminate).
- any help/idea on this would be highly appreciated.
- thanks.
