hi, i just got borland 5.0 about 2 days ago, and ive been following this hello-world example, and messing around on my own...but anyways, heres my code:

#include <iostream.h>

int main()
{
	cout<<"Hello World!";
	return 0;
}

now ... it works, but, it automatically exits the program itself...
too fast to even see what it says...
how would i make it so that the user could exit when they wanted?
or exit after 5 seconds?

#include <iostream.h>

int main()
{
	int x;
	cout<<"Hello World!";
	cin >> x;
	return 0;
}

you could also try to write

cin.get();
cin.get();

after the cout-line. This makes the program need two enter-presses before exiting.
