Ok. So you could simply omit the trailing CLC. Another idea would be to create a TIMER object, which calls CLC once only after a specified number of seconds. But this might confuse a user seriously! Kind regards, Jan

One of the ways you can use PAUSE does in fact pause until the user strikes a key. But that's not the only way you can use PAUSE. Look at the first syntax given in "help pause". -- Steve Lord slord(a)mathworks.com comp.soft-sys.matlab (CSSM) FAQ: http://matlabwiki.mathworks.com/MATLAB_FAQ
