Is there any kind of command for WinXP shell that make the system wait
some seconds??

I want to use it for a .bat file. For instance:

program1
wait x seconds
program2

Regards!
 
you can use:
this will pause the batch file for about 8 seconds. change number as
needed.(go 1 or 2 numbers higher than the time you want)

ping -n 10 localhost >nul
 
i should have looked at your example before posting! sorry...
you can use the start command

start /wait program1
start /wait program2
