after that time has elapsed. It is typically used for things
like flashing a button, where the delay is short and the
-application needn't do anything while it waits. For longer
+application need not do anything while it waits. For longer
delays where the application needs to respond to other events
during the delay, the procedure \fBTcl_CreateTimerHandler\fR
should be used instead of \fBTcl_Sleep\fR.
