Where can I find documentation for standard C/POSIX stuff in PB? I couldn't even get it to find printf for example.
What I really need is something equivalent to Thread.sleep(n) in java, which sleeps for n milliseconds before continuuing execution. I have tried all of Apple's online books but those are too verbose and not detailed enough.

/usr/share/man/man3 is probably your best bet.
man 3 sleep and man 3 usleep should provide you with what you need. You might also be interested in man pthread.

If you're working with Foundation, you should probably look at NSThread sleepUntilDate:.

Thanks for the help. I didn't think to try man, and when I added different headers to my project I noticed that more results started to appear in the documentation viewer. sleep(int) did the trick.
My problem with the man pages is I don't have someplace to search for topics that I don't really know much about (as in this case), since I don't really have any good keywords to lookup.

Yet another unix tool that I knew nothing about. Although, ironically enough, it has no man page.
