I was wondering about that, so I compiled it with MinGW and sleep()
worked fine, so I stuck with that. In fact, I just tried Sleep() and
that didn't work. It said:

C:/DOCUME~1/BRUCEM~1/LOCALS~1/Temp/ccMLbaaa.o(.text+0x27):x.c: undefined
reference to `Sleep'

Maybe if I added some includes it would work, but sleep() seemed safest.
