dream(1l)







NAME

dream - suspend execution for an interval while executing

random code in memory



SYNTAX

dream [-d][[-nrRsw] [time]]



DESCRIPTION

Dream suspends execution of the current proces for time

seconds, while simulating a dream sequence by executing random

segments of code in memory. All devices are paralyzed (blocked)

to prevent dangerous side-effects. The options are as follows:



-d daydream. code seems to be more related to the actual

suspended process, and suspension will be for a limited

amount of time. Attention can be restored by snapping

fingers next to keyboard.



-n nightmare. Repeated references to the system error logs

are made during execution.



-r recurring. The code of a previous execution will be

re-selected for this dream.



-R REM (Rapid Eye Movement). The current value of the PC is

is flashed on the screen for every instruction.



-s sleepwalking. Tape drives will be sent many alternating

fast-forward and rewind requests and/or line printers sent

many alternating carraige-return and tab codes to promote

movement of machine(s) across floor. Stopping these

devices may confuse the program.



-w wet dream. The code is selected from the sex(1l) program.



Dream will invoke automatically with the -d option when the

system proves extremely slow.



The relation of the randomly-executed code to the subconcious

(background tasks) of the current processes is suspected but has

not been proven.



WARNING

do not select the -w option without covering the keyboard.
