 * Delay the output for ms milliseconds.
 * Note that this is NOT the same as a high resolution sleep.  It will
 * cause a delay in the output but will not necessarily suspend the
 * processor.  For applications needing to sleep for 1/10th second,
 * this is not a usable substitute.  It causes a pause in the displayed
 * output, for example, for the eye wink in snake.  It is disrecommended
 * for "delay" to be much more than 1/2 second, especially at high
 * baud rates, because of all the characters it will output.  Note
 * that due to system delays, the actual pause could be even more.
 * Some games won't work decently with this routine.
