It returns nothing. IFAIR, when SwiftForth was first implemented, all
API calls returned a value. Sometime later, the Window API interface
was improved. Since Sleep (with a dummy return) was already publicly in
use, it was not changed to reflect the API.

What does the function SLEEP return?

Function: Sleep ( a -- x )

According to Borlands Windows API, it doesn't return anything?

Thanks, Anil
