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" );
  }
