But please don't do something like this synchronously. It freezes the
UI of your app, and generally makes the user experience less pleasing.
Using run loop timers or other timer mechanisms is not so hard, really.

Is there an alternative to the Delay routine that is more accurate? I

that important in this case but I didn't want to obscure the main
question with a more involved example.
You can use MPDelayUntil() or it's mach variant (whose name escapes
me). These allow you to do delays at native timebase accuracy - which
is probably far more accurate than you actually care about =).

Reality is what, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away.
Failure is not an option. It is a privilege reserved for those who try.
