  14. W.Fiveash|>      Does HP UX have an equivalent system call to usleep which accepts an
  15. W.Fiveash|>      argument with microsecond granularity? The closest system call I could
  16. W.Fiveash|>      find was sleep (whole second granularity) which is too coarse for my
  17. W.Fiveash|>      purposes.
  18.  
  19. You could use select() or poll() to get microsecond granularity.
