I think if you really need to wait for 3 seconds or thereabouts, there's some factor at work here that needs to be understood. I could buy some very short delays without understanding the reasons, "just because it works", but 3 seconds is too long to wait without understanding why. _______________________________________________ Bug-make mailing list Bug-make@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-make
