Thanks, that's actually really close to what I need. 300ms is a better delay and WAIT is too coarse. But spinning for a bit doesn't seem to hurt anything:

Code:


// Cycles over entry mode options. 
KEY K_On() 
BEGIN 
LOCAL an:={"Textbook","Algebraic","RPN"}; 
Entry:=(Entry+1)MOD3; 

STARTVIEW(-8,1); // Out to ANY AVAILABLE view... 
STARTVIEW(-1,1); // ... and back in, to refresh 

TEXTOUT_P(an(Entry+1),G0,2,207,2,RGB(255,0,0)); 
waitms(300);
END;

Code:


EXPORT waitms(ms)
BEGIN
  local T0;
  T0 := TICKS;
  while (TICKS-T0) < ms DO
  end;
END;
