WAIT

        [VECTOR\]WAIT [Task_name]

    Place the current program in a  wait  state  until  the  specified  Task
    (started  by  command RUN) terminates. By default, the last started Task
    is used.  WAIT  *  waits  until  all  tasks  complete.  Waiting  can  be
    interrupted by pressing ^C.

    It may be used to synchronize complex procedures  where  the  result  of
    some  task  is  used  as  input  by  others. For batch jobs sent through
    command SUBMIT, this synchronization is  normally  ensured  by  the  job
    limit of the GILDAS_BATCH batch queue.
