SLEEP(1) User Commands SLEEP(1)NAME
sleep - delay for a specified amount of time
SYNOPSIS
sleep NUMBER[SUFFIX]...
sleep OPTION
DESCRIPTION
Pause for NUMBER seconds. SUFFIX may be 's' for seconds (the default), 'm' for minutes, 'h' for hours or 'd' for days. Unlike most imple-
mentations that require NUMBER be an integer, here NUMBER may be an arbitrary floating point number. Given two or more arguments, pause
for the amount of time specified by the sum of their values.
