   Thanks...   
      
      
   Rather than inline assember, I was thinking more of just "hackey" sleep()   
   where I think somthing like sleep(3000) would be about 3 seconds, as the value   
   is in ms I'd have to look..every language seems to pick some arbitray value,   
   ms, or seconds, or minutes or what ever.   
      
   dump it right at the end of the w_brag() in geinit.cpp   
      
   ====   
     wcenters(MAXROW-9, C_BRAGW, buf);   
     gsprintf(PRINTF_DECLARE_BUFFER(buf), "Compiled on %s %s", __gver_date__,   
   __gver_time__);   
     wcenters(MAXROW-8, C_BRAGW, buf);   
      
     sleep(3000   
   }   
      
   =====   
      
   Total hack... I might take the time to addd a keyword or a CLI option ....   
      
   I just like to see it
