Hi
I'm trying to write a program that would make something happen after so many seconds. I'm pretty sure I'd have to put in:

#include <time.h>

but I'm not totally sure and if any of you can help could you please show me what to do to make it calculate the seconds and start something after a few minutes.

Thanks,
Schecter

errr....hmmmmmm....Google... literally 1.5 sec worth of searching:

i posted the Google Syntax for a reason... you had a genuine question, so I'll go easy, but damn... learn how to use Google...

thanks a lot man it really helped :] haha and thanks for not bitching :P

you would probably be best using time.h, and using the get time function(i dont remember it's syntax, ive only used it once or so), within a loop, and after the difference in time is found, if it's greater than a certain amount, it runs a loop, however, there is most certainly a simpler way to do that, and google would certainly help more.

thanks :] yea I'm trying to make something to send to someone i know just to have IE open up every 5 minutes or so just to mess with him :P. I also just want to familiarize with the language and get used to writing with it.
