While I have to admit it would be very nice to have such a feature in
1.4, I'm not holding my breath. As a matter of fact, I hope they don't
just fix it so when the beep routine is called it gives a "beep". I
use installbeep with the filter turned off and with a sample I lifted
out of the binary of some game. It's very nice, and sounds infinitely
better than what I've heard the Mac do with such. I hope that if they
patch DisplayBeep() they at least provide for a sample to be installed
instead of just having a random beep tone.....
