- Wait v1.5 -- By Scott Deming
- ----------------------------
-
- Wait is a utility a little like the MS-DOS Pause utility
- but with more meaning. With the MS-DOS Pause utility you are
- very limited to only one thing "Press any key to continue. .
- ." while with WAIT you can make your own prompt and have
- colour or even have it beep. This is a very basic program
- and is very easy to learn. To use WAIT you just type need to
- type in "WAIT {parameters/prompt}". Here is an explanation
- of the parameters:
-
- Available parameters:
- ---------------------
- \B : Sounds a beep when inserted to the command line
- \Cx : Changes the foreground colour where x is:
- 0 : WHITE
- 1 : BLUE
- 2 : RED
- 3 : YELLOW
- 4 : CYAN
- 5 : PURPLE
- 6 : GREEN
- 7 : GREY #1
- 8 : GREY #2
- 9 : BLACK
- \Tx : Changes the background colour where x is:
- 0 : WHITE
- 1 : BLUE
- 2 : RED
- 3 : YELLOW
- 4 : CYAN
- 5 : PURPLE
- 6 : GREEN
- 7 : GREY #1
- 8 : GREY #2
- 9 : BLACK
- \H : Clears the screen and homes the cursor
- \Kx : Sets kalidescope colors on/off where if x=0 then off, if x=1 then on
- \Sx : Sets the spinning cursor on/off where if x=0 then off, if x=1 then on
- \D : Prints the current dos version
