+BLINK(vpin, onMs,offMs)
+
+which will start a vpin blinking until such time as it is SET, RESET or set by a signal operation such as RED, AMBER, GREEN. 
+
+BLINK returns immediately, the blinking is autonomous. 
+
+This means a signal that always blinks amber could be done like this:
+```
+SIGNAL(30,31,32)
+ONAMBER(30) BLINK(31,500,500) DONE
+```
+The RED or GREEN calls will turn off the amber blink automatically.
+
+Alternatively a signal that has normal AMBER and flashing AMBER could be like this:
+
+#define FLASHAMBER(signal) \
+                AMBER(signal) \
+                BLINK(signal+1,500,500)
+
+  (Caution: this issumes that the amber pin is redpin+1)
