Summary: How do I slow down the character output Keywords: slow output Message-ID: <6496@emory.mathcs.emory.edu> Date: 5 Nov 90 16:53:47 GMT References: <6495@emory.mathcs.emory.edu> Distribution: usa Organization: Emory University, Dept of Math and CS Lines: 14 I'm writing a shell script demo program and I want to know if there are any shell scripts or other pd stuff that could make the terminal output look like a teletype machine. I need to be able to have the output pause for tenth's of seconds between characters and the sleep command has a one second minimum. Thanks in advance!! --david -- ------- ------- David E.
