This is a helper to play some tunes on the console.
It's commandline is a list of
hz:duration:wait
where hz is the frequency, 0 for 'sound off'
duration is in milliseconds, 100 by default
wait is the wait time, duration by default
You can leave away unused parts, so here is a small Dschingle
for a in 1 2 3; do ./kdmktone 1000 1500 2000 0; donePlease note that some beepers out there don't like some frequencies, such that you cannot hear them. That's not the fault of this tool.
