Parameters
`duration`
Duration in seconds.
`pitch`
Pitch as semitones from middle C, matching the sfxlib pitch form.
Description
`Beep` tells the system to sound a beep noise. The no-argument form keeps the traditional console behavior. The two-argument form uses sfxlib and produces a generated note with an explicit duration and pitch.
For more control over generated sound, use the sfxlib commands such as `Sound`, `Tone`, `Note`, and `Play`.

Differences from QB

- In QB, this was a single tone noise generated through the PC speaker. Now this might not be the case.
