Summary     : Beep the pc speaker any number of ways.
Description :
Beep allows the user to control the pc-speaker with precision,
allowing different sounds to indicate different events. While it
can be run quite happily on the commandline, it's intended place
of residence is within shell/perl scripts, notifying the user when
something interesting occurs. Of course, it has no notion of
what's interesting, but it's real good at that notifying part.

Requires:

   Standard Red Hat 7.1 installation

%CHANGELOG
* Fri Mar 29 2002 Ryan Weaver <ryanw infohwy com>

[beep-1.2.2-1]
- Man pages now gzip -9 for better compression
- Table of frequencies added to man page
- Fix for platforms with unsigned chars
- On ioctl() errors, beep will now do a printf("\a") so that,
  at very least, you get a beep.  :)

* Tue Aug 08 2000 Ryan Weaver <ryanw infohwy com>

[beep-1.2.1-2]
- Concern was voiced over my decision to setuid the beep binary.
  I have therefore removed the setuid from the binary. If you
  are using beep in X you must have setuid or it will not work.
  Please see README in the docs directory for more details.

* Sun Aug 06 2000 Ryan Weaver <ryanw infohwy com>

- installing beep with setuid so that users other than root
  can use it.
  [beep-1.2.1-1]
- fixed segfault when handling long options.

* Thu Jul 27 2000 Ryan Weaver <ryanw infohwy com>

[beep-1.2.0-1]
- added -n/--new support - so beep FINALLY handles multiple
  beeps on a single command line.
- -f now takes decimal frequencies, not just whole numbers.

* Wed Jul 12 2000 Ryan Weaver <ryanw infohwy com>

- Initial RPM Build.
- Patched Makefile to make rpm build easier.

  [beep-1.0.2-1]
- Added more common -V option, as companion to -v and --version
- README now addresses the question of multiple beeps, and
  composing music with beep.

  [beep-1.0.1-1]
- Fixed some outdated comments in the source, and a typo in the man page.

  [beep-1.0.0-1]
- added a SIGINT handler, so Ctrl-C no longer leaves the speaker
  wailing forever
- added -v/--version and -h/--help support
- updated man page
- this release is changed from 0.8 to 1.0.0, it's worthy of it.
  Feature complete and no outstanding bugs that I know of.

  [beep-0.6.1-1]
- changed man page to gzip format (instead of bzip2)
- updated man page and README to explain ioctl problems

  [beep-0.6-1]
- added -D option. Both -d and -D set inter-repetition delay,
  but -D instructs beep to delay even after the last beep,
  where -d delays only between beeps, and terminates immediately
  after last beep.
- incorporated Rick Franchuk's idea of stdin hooks - dear god -c is annoying.
- added a man page

  [beep-0.5-1]
- changed over from manually parsing command line parms to getopt()
- changed atoi() calls into sscanf() calls, to get more meaningful error 
  handling

  [beep-0.4-1]
- first useable
- initial options supported: -f, -l, -d, -r
