I couldn't resist doing this, all the more that the PC speaker does not really work in many modern *nixes. It is beep program embellished by a soundfont. And it can actually play music, after a fashion.
Here is a copy of the first part of the help:
Code: Select all
sfbleep is a supercharged beep command that makes use
of an embedded soundfont. You can control the voice,
the pitch, the duration and the amplitude of the sound.
Usage: sfbleep a b c d
where a = voice [0 to 212], b = note [0 to 125],
c = duration in milliseconds and d = volume [0-100].
Enter sfbleep -l to see all available voices.
With kind regards,

UPDATED: Forgot to include scripts at first.
