> Basically, I want to make a command called 'hello', so when you type
> it, it uses 'send_to_char("Hello", ch);', and then two seconds later
> it does the same thing as above but the word is 'World' instead of
> 'Hello'.
>
> I know how to create the actual command, and use the send_to_char
> function,
> it's the part where it waits four seconds that I'm unsure about it. Sorry
