This works for me under minGW GCC, but I could not get Sleep() or sleep() to work OK, I am guessing that I am missing an needed header.

--- Code: ---#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
cout << "Going to Sleep!" << endl;
    _sleep(10000); // time in milliseconds
cout << "Hello world!" << endl;
return 0;
}

--- End code ---

That would be windows.h.

DaVince:
Include windows.h.

EDIT: just too late. I wish I weren't a C++ newbie and had to look at how I solved the problem again. >_<

That was not enough, for sleep() to work. But, it was enough to get Sleep() to work.
Note, Google said minGW runtime had issues on sleep()
