crash utility help page:  repeat


NAME
  repeat - repeat a command

SYNOPSIS
  repeat [-seconds] command

DESCRIPTION
  This command repeats a command indefinitely, optionally delaying a given
  number of seconds between each command execution.

    -seconds   The number of seconds to delay between command executions.
               This option must precede the command name to be executed.
 
  Command execution may be stopped with CTRL-C, or if scrolling is in effect,
  by entering "q".  This command is meant for use on a live system; it is
  hard to conceive of a reason to use it when debugging a crash dump.
