+
+ <i>Sleep</i> suspends the current process for the number of milliseconds
+ specified by the argument. The actual suspension time may be a
+ little more or less than the requested time. If <i>millisecs</i> is 0,
+ the process gives up the CPU if another process is waiting to
+ run, returning immediately if not. Sleep returns &ndash;1 if interrupted,
+ 0 otherwise.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Alarm</i> causes an <tt><font size=+1>alarm</font></tt> note (see <a href="../man3/notify.html"><i>notify</i>(3)</a>) to be sent to the invoking
+ process after the number of milliseconds given by the argument.
+ Successive calls to <i>alarm</i> reset the alarm clock. A zero argument
+ clears the alarm. The return value is the amount of time previously
+ remaining in the alarm clock.
