 Name          : Page sysop to chat
 Optional Data : <Paging string>

   Displays the <paging string> to the user and pages the sysop
   for a  chat.  If the REASON FOR PAGE option has been enabled
   in RACONFIG, RemoteAccess will display a user-defined prompt
   and  wait for  the user to  enter a reason  for requesting a
   chat. The sysop may select "C" to chat with the user, or "A"
   to abort the page.  You may break in for a  chat at any time
   by   pressing  ALT-C.   All sysop  keys are  listed in   the
   reference section of this manual.  During a chat, the system
   timer  is  "frozen",  and  is re-started when  the  chat  is
   terminated.  The sysop terminates chat mode with the  ESCape
   key.  During  chat,  you may open a capture file to log  the
   chat  session  by pressing CTRL-A,  and again to  close  the
   capture.

   The default paging sound is a constant "beep-beep" tone  for
   the duration of the page. You may define your own page sound
   by  creating  a  text  file called  PAGE.RA  in  the  system
   directory. The following keywords are valid:


     TONE [hz] [1/100's sec]   (sounds hz)
     WAIT [1/100's sec]        (sounds nothing)


   The following  table lists  several musical octaves  and the
   correct frequency value associated with each note:
