The paused event handler instance can also be resumed before + the requested amount times elapsed by calling stop_wait() from another + event handler instance.

- + + If the even handler instance's built-in variable $NKSP_IGNORE_WAIT + reflects 1 then all calls to wait() will be ignored. + This might for example be the case when stop_wait() with + 1 being passed to the 2nd argument of that function. + +
