Beep Command [by Lord Kyu]

From: Lord Kyu <shapeshifter@tka.com>
Subject: Kyu's do_beep function

************************************************************

This is a hack of do_tell that I used to make a quick and simple little
beep command to get people's attention who may be away from their keyboard,
or in another window. Note, this is not a patch, though may be able to be
used as a drop code with some minor adjustments. Note, be sure to remove
anything that does not apply to your realm.
