Quick question.

Is there a way in C# to pause for a given length of time without using timers?

System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.Sleep(<time to pause in milliseconds>)

Pauses the current thread. If you wish to pause all threads (May I ask why?) then things become slightly more complicated.

That's what I was looking for. Thanks!
