There. THAT subject line should catch people's attention...
I have a little INIT program called "Beep". It apparently patches the
SysBeep routine so instead of producing dinky little bells or monkeys
or boings, the Mac chimes with a three-note chord whenever it beeps.
It really makes the Mac sound great - if you'd like me to, I'll post
it here.
Problem is, it has a problem. Every now and then, if you set your
Mac's volume to 0, a beep will make your screen flash rapidly and your
session go down in flames. And Music Destruction - er, Music
Construction Set causes this misanthropic phenomenon to occur with
disturbing regularity no matter whan the current volume.
Does anyone happen to have the source code for this program, or maybe
source code for something like it, or source code for anything generic
that patches into SysBeep or that generates a tri-tonal chord?
Thank you for your support.

This was handy for a deaf friend who was using my Mac once. Also handy for latenight sessions when others are sleeping. >and your session go down in flames. That I dunno about. Must be a bug in the INIT not handling level 0 correctly. -Russ
