Hey, I like control sequences for this task! I understand this as controlling the noise a write(#07) makes, pretty easy. I'll try it. Ahem, maybe you know how to control the volume, too? > Of course, the PC-Speaker is not really high fidelty sound. :) No problem here, I only need an acoustic feedback from a program reading values from a DMM, so the person using it doesn't has to look at the screen each time. But there have to be at least two or three different noises.
