Does the VWAIT command still have some function? Because it was used for old CRT-screens to wait for the vertical blank. It seems that the Flip command does the same job better.

Flip still includes a VWait by default:
Flip [vwait]
Parameters:
vwait = set to FALSE to disable frame syncing, defaults to TRUE which waits for vertical blank to finish


Vertical sync is not just for CRT monitors.

So Flip does the same as the combination of vwait and flip false command.

Yes.
