Hi all.  Is there any standard way to produce a beep in common lisp?
Are there implementation-specific functions that do this?  cmucl would
be nice.

(+ CFFI cl-openal)? In 3D, no less.

(ed-beep) in MCL?

(editor::editor-beep) in LispWorks?

Wait, what does (editor::editor-siren) do?

Oh, no... ... how to turn THAT off...?

And if you had listened to me you could have had a hellasweet Doppler

I tried

(format t "~a" #\bell)

and it works with openmcl and sbcl in a shell window; not in Slime though.


Ahh,

(coerce '(#\bell) 'string)

also works ;)

Thanks - this worked in cmucl too.  I need something that beeps to
time my meditation in the morning.  Why buy a timer.
