For an application using Fullscreen CMS I'd like to have a
timeout. Fortunately there is a BEAT stage, so I tried

        "PIPE (end ? sep !) nuwfk ! a:beat 5 ?a:'

with NUWFK REXX containing mainly

   address '' "VSC WAITREAD NUT"
   "CALLPIPE stem waitread. ! stem waitread. MAIN"

When it failed I found the note in The Book:

> beat cannot detect timeouts during CMS commands.

For the DELAY stage there is not similar restriction documented,
alas it also fails for me in this case.

Are there other solutions? Is it possible to trigger VSCREEN
WAITREAD with a special message from a Wakeup machine?

Ciao.....Mike
