On further testing, I see that the problem does not arise with a single P command, but rather when the P command is repeated in quick succession. Try running the attached XPL programs in XyWrite 4. The usage is RUN PAUSE.PM . All three programs sleep for 3 seconds. PAUSE.PM does a single pause with P 3, and it works. PAUSE2.PM does P 1 three times via a loop -- it freezes XyWrite. PAUSE3.PM executes P (same as P 1) three times in succession (no loop) -- and it also freezes. All three programs work in the earlier release of vDos-lfn. I'm guessing that the problem has something to do with the increased CPU speed emulation in the new release of vDos. What do you think? The loop including a pause is very common in XPL, for example, when waiting for a file to be created by another process, so it would be great if this issue could be addressed. Many thanks for looking at this. -- Carl Distefano cld@xxxxxxxx Attachment: PAUSE.PM
