	##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 ##[[KeyPgSfxGenerated|Sound]]##, ##[[KeyPgSfxGenerated|Tone]]##, ##[[KeyPgSfxGenerated|Note]]##, and ##[[KeyPgSfxGenerated|Play]]##.
