-
- This program will allow you to generate speaker output from the
- DOS command prompt. You may specify the frequency of the tone, the
- duration, the number of repetitions, and the interval between
- repetitions. You may also let any or all of these parameters default.
- For the first tone on the command line, the defaults will produce a
- tone identical to the system's bell (Control-G).
- Note that you may specify multiple tones on a single command line
- by separating the parameters with a semi-colon. For subsequent tones
- on a single command line, the defaults match the previous tone on the
- command line.
-
-
- Command Format:
-
- BEEP [/Fn][/Dn][/Rn][/Wn][;[/Fn][/Dn][/Rn][/Wn]][...]
-
- /Fn Defines the frequency of the tone (in Hertz).
-
- /Dn Defines the Duration of the tone (in 1/18 sec. increments).
-
- /Rn Defines how many repetitions of the tone will be played.
-
- /Wn Defines the wait interval between repetitions (1/18 sec.).
-
-
-
- Examples:
-
- BEEP (Will produce the standard system bell)
-
- BEEP /F2000/R2 (Will produce two tones at 2000 Hz)
-
- BEEP /F2000/R2/D18 (Will produce two tones of 1 second each
- at 2000 Hz)
-
- BEEP /F2000/R2;/F1000 (Will produce two tones at 2000 Hz,
- followed by two tones at 1000 Hz)
-
- BEEP /F200/R2;/F100/R1 (Will produce two tones at 200 Hz,
- followed by one tone at 100 Hz)
-
- BEEP /D4/F400;/F200;/F800;/F400 (Will produce a warble tone)

- If you are not familiar with the CED Command Editor (Version 1.0,
- Copyright 1985, Christopher J. Dunford), disregard the following.
-
-
-
-
- BEEPINS is a version of BEEP that can be used with the CED Command
- Editor to make BEEP a resident, or User, Command. Once CED is
- installed, simply type in BEEPINS at the DOS prompt, and BEEP will
- become a resident command that behaves just like the non-resident
- version. If desired, you may have BEEP installed automatically each
- time you boot up by including the following in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
-
- .
- .
- .
- CED (ced parameters)
- .
- .
- .
- BEEPINS
- .
- .
- .
-
- Note that BEEPINS must be run *After* CED is installed.
