Well, I just used 'sleep' from the Linux shell instead. I don't understand yet what I'm doing wrong with the following function, though. Could someone explain and advise?


void scrollString( char[] s ) {
   for ( int i = 0; i < s.length; i++ )
     writef( s[i] );
     system( "sleep 0.2" );
 }


If you're expecting it to pause after each character.. you're missing braces around the body of the for loop, this isn't Python ;)
