You could use usleep. It's kinda similar to the Windows version except that it takes arguments in microseconds.

Thanks Albert. I edited it again to remove the strike-through text and the edit-info as it will confuse the OP and other readers. I did add a small line acknowledging your correction. I trust that's alright!

I would say: create a non signaled wait object and wait for it with timeout.
