BEEPER - Resident BEEP Handler
Copyright 1992 Samuel H. Smith; All rights reserved.
This FREEWARE package can be freely distributed so long as it is not
modified or sold for profit.
This program is a TSR that traps bios BEEP signals and converts them
background beeps with a command-line controlled frequency. This
useful if your machine's BIOS gives you a tiresome slow beep, or if
you have multiple machines and would like each to have its own
distinctive beep tone.
Usage:
BEEPER n
where
n indicates the beep tone and may be a number between 0
and 9.
Examples:
BEEPER 1
BEEPER %PCBNODE%

Initial release as BEEPER10.ZIP.
02-16-93
Added logic to limit the number of pending beeps to 10, which helps
in cases where a BBS can quickly generate dozens of beeps due to
line noise of user input.
Released as BEEPER11.ZIP.
