Wait - HP MC68040 User Manual

Chapter 11: Emulator Commands

wait

wait
This command allows you to pause the system. The wait command can be included
in a command file, or used during normal operation at the main emulation level.
Delays allow the emulation system and target processor to reach a certain condition
or state before executing the next emulation command.
The wait command does not appear on the softkey labels. You must type the wait
command into the keyboard. After you type wait, the command parameters will be
accessible through the softkeys.
If you issue a wait command without any other options, the system will pause until
it receives a <CTRL>c signal.
If set intr <CTRL>c was not executed on your system, <CTRL>c normally
defaults to the backspace key. See your UNIX system administrator for more
details regarding keyboard definitions.
A wait command in a command file will cause execution of the command file to
pause until a <CTRL>c signal is received, if <CTRL>c is defined as the interrupt
signal. Subsequent commands in the command file will not execute while the
command file is paused.
You can verify whether the interrupt signal is defined as <CTRL>c by typing set at
the system prompt.
