Idles machine for specified number of seconds.
WHY IS IT NEEDED? In batch processing, you often want a specified
amount of time to elapse between events. For example, you want a
display to be on the screen for 5 second, then move on.
FORMAT: WAIT n
where n= an integer, and is the number of seconds to wait.
EXAMPLES: WAIT 10
COMMENTS: Does not use clock, so is possible timing may not be
same on compatibles.
