in reply to Tk and sleep() on win32

Update: Ignore this. That just gets mapped to the same stupid implementation!

Try substituting Win32::Sleep( $millis ) and see what if any difference it makes.

I've never understood why sleep is implemented that way on win32, when there is a perfectly good sleep function offered by the OS. Maybe it is something to do with the signals emulation?
