Im trying to add a SetTimeOut to a loop but it fails to pause the code Im trying to insert the SetTimeOut to is:

    var temp  = new Array();
    var l = 1; 
    for (var i=coreLines.length-1; i>=0; i--) { 
        l += 1 + Math.floor(coreLines[i].length/displayCols);
        if (l >= displayRows) break
        else temp.push(coreLines[i]);
    }

    You should call `setTimeOut()` recursively...`setTimeOut()` should replace your loop. – brso05 Mar 01 '16 at 21:48
