How to pause a script for 100ms?

I want a script to pause for a tiny bit, and the only way I see to do it is with the "beep" command. I don't want to prompt the user, I just want it to take a little breather between some steps.

How do you do this without beeping?

:wink:
wait [wait period in ms];
maybe the default is 1000, I forget.
