is used to have a graphics entity blinking
twinkle twinkle(n) twinkle(h) twinkle(h,n)
handle of the unique graphics entity to blink. By default, the current graphic entity handled with gce() is considered.
positive integer number: the number of blinks. Default n = 5.
twinkle blinks n times the graphical entity
handled with h. If twinkle() is run while no
graphical figure exists, it does nothing and returns. If the handle h
is invalid (the entity has been deleted in the meantime),
twinkle(h..) yields an error.
