Your question doesn't make sense but here goes :-).

On command line use a program called 'sleep x' where x is the time to wait in 
seconds. Inside a program code use usleep or some variant. You can also use a 
travesty called system("sleep x"), but YMMV based on your skills. In GTK+ use 
GLib timers (they work quite nicely there without blocking the GUI-loop).
