ChipMunkBasic Sleep does not work.(solved)

[E.K.Virtanen]

Hi folks.

Any CMBasic users here? CMBasic manual states next

Code:

       fn sleep( VAL )

                Sleeps process for VAL seconds.  Fractional values
for the sleep time are allowed

However, when i try, i get bad subsrcipt error.
I posted about this at CMBasic group but no clue how long it takes until my post is accepted, so i thought to ask from here too.

Code:

var = fn sleep(time)

Is this language still alive or what?
ChipMonk basic is console compiler - right?

Yah, it is still very alive. Thought there is not huge amount of users, there is allways peoples who likes old-school. And beside of that, CMB offers neat functionality, even some that all "modern" dialects cant.

If you want to create programs for big public, then dont use this, but if you want to have some fun, then it is worth of trying

Most of CMB users seems to be at emailing lists and posting groups, such as google groups for example.
