Need Wait or Pause (command or function)

This is probably better.

It seems the Application.Sleep() function although it says it does not respond to mouse clicks does not stop them being sent/recieved and its the clicking of the window that causes a crash when sleeping so try this before going to sleep.

There is no sleep or pause in Lua because there is no sleep in ANSI C so you have to do something and that something on a single thread is going to make the app non responsive so the bundled Application.Sleep() function is about as good as it gets really but there is a few suggestions here along with here and also there is the WinApi Lua module that does have a sleep function but having tried that its only good for a second or two.

Hello Friend
I need the command Wait or Pause
Action Application.Sleep(Ms); Cause the all program to crash
For example :

SerialPort.Output(":7F10011200020400C8000090", "true");
Wait (1000) ;
   if (SerialPort.BufferCount()==0) then
    --do nothing
   else
    serialget=SerialPort.Input();
   end

I should be no interruption in the software. Why can not command Application.Sleep I use
In all programming language, there is a wait command
I'm surprised, because it without such the ability to
