like this is the FIRST compiler abnormality youve
ever had to work around!! lol. i dont think so.

besides, is response of time() a char value, or
is it a numeric value? if wait follows fox's normal
abbreviation scheme (4 char), which should the compiler
writer assume an independent funtion [time()] or one
of the commands own keywords [TIMEout n]? i would
probably have chosen the keyword also..
