Package: beepState: not installedVersion: 1.2.2-20Priority: optionalSection: universe/soundMaintainer: Ubuntu MOTU Developers <ubuntu-motu@lists.ubuntu.com>Uncompressed Size: 115kDepends: libc6 (>= 2.6.1-1), debconf (>= 0.5) | debconf-2.0Description: advanced pc-speaker beeper beep does what you'd expect: it beeps. But unlike printf "\a" beep allows you to control pitch, duration, and repetitions. Its job is to live inside shell/perl scripts and allow more granularity than one has otherwise. It is controlled completely through command line options. It's not supposed to be complex, and it isn't - but it makes system monitoring (or whatever else it gets hacked into) much more informative.
