Is there a way to make the current thread sleep for a given amount of

earlier?
Create a mutex/condition pair, then have one thread wait on the condition
with a timeout.
The second thread signals the condition to wake it up early.
If you are using D1, then you have to use Tango (I think), and the classes
are tango.core.sync.Mutex and tango.core.sync.Condition
If you are using D2, then they are in druntime, probably
core.sync.Condition and core.sync.Mutex, not sure though.
