Windows equivalent to Unix sleep

[Nick Roberts]

I am trying to make a transition from using annotations to GDB/MI in gdb-ui.el
On address@hidden it was suggested that I use the tty command to
separate the output of gdb from that of the inferior. I now know this requires
the Unix sleep command so that any input in the execution window will be sure
to go to the inferior, rather than the shell. Something like:

(make-comint "I/O" "sleep" nil "10000")

will work (for 3 hours anyway!).

AFAIK there is no sleep command in Windows. Can I do so anything so that this
approach will also work there?
