      NAME
           pause - stop until signal

      SYNOPSIS
           pause()

      DESCRIPTION
           Pause never returns normally.  It is used to give up  control  while
           waiting  for a signal from kill(2) or alarm(2).  Upon termination of
           a signal handler started during a pause, the pause call will return.
