What purpose will it serve?<br/><br/>You might be able to do it using the "ping sleep work-around", but again, I don't really understand why you'd want to do this...<br/><br/>An explaination of the "ping sleep work-around":<br/><br/>Useing the ping command in the following way can effectively mimic the desired output of a "sleep" command<br/><br/>ping 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 1000<br/><br/>NOTES:<br/>1.1.1.1 <strong>MUST </strong> BE AN <strong>INVALID IP ON YOUR NETWORK</strong><br/>The number following "-w" is the number of milliseconds to "wait", therefore 1000 = 1 second, 5000 = 5 seconds.<br/>The "pinging 1.1.1.1 with ..." dialog <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/still-653256" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about STILL">STILL</a> displaysping 1.1.1.1 -n 1 -w 1000 > nul<br/><br/>will not display the "pinging 1.1.1.1 with..." part.</body></html> | |
