- Short: Dis/enable dos.library's delay
- Author: Nagilum
- Uploader: nagilum@chillout.org
- Type: util/misc
- Requires: OS1.2
- Distribution: Aminet
-
- This small hack is used to dis/enable dos.library's delay function that causes
- a small delay each time it's called. Programms use this function for different
- reasons, mostly to give the user some time to read a message or something.
- Messages that use the dalay function will now disappear quicker.
- Don't use it all the time, only if you need it, disabling the delay
- function forever is dangerous, don't do it.

-
- Usage: start it once - delay disabled
- start it again - dalay enabled again
