NAME
    Delay -- Delay a process for a specified time

SYNOPSIS
    Delay( ticks )
           D1

    void Delay(ULONG)

FUNCTION
    The argument 'ticks' specifies how many ticks (50 per second) to
    wait before returning control.

INPUTS
    ticks - integer

BUGS
    Due to a bug in the timer.device in V1.2/V1.3, specifying a timeout
    of zero for Delay() can cause the unreliable timer & floppy disk
    operation.  This is fixed in V36 and later.
