Usage

sleep.exe NUMBER[UNIT] [-st] [-h] [-V] [--license] [--home]

Options

Option Description
-st, --show-time Show the calculated waiting time.
-h, --help Show this help.
-V, --version Show application version.
--license Display program license.
--home Opens program homepage in the default browser.

NUMBER

Any combination of real, integer, hexadecimal, or binary numbers. Each number may be followed by a time unit suffix. The total waiting time will be the sum of all the numbers provided.
The decimal separator in real numbers can be . (period) or , (comma).
Hexadecimal numbers must be prefixed with 0x or $ (dollar), eg. 0x0A, $0A.
The letter D at the end of the number is treated as a unit of time (days), so if you want to set the wait time to $0Dseconds, you must use $ODs and not $OD.
Binary numbers must be prefixed with % (percent), eg. %1010.

Maximum waiting time: 2^32 ms = 49d 17:02:47.295
Timer resolution depends on the operating system and hardware. On my Windows 10: min = 15.625 ms, max = 0.500 ms.
