supporting the RoarAudio protocol and the BEEP command.
RETURN VALUE

NOTES
The beep is canceld at the server side as soon as the connection is
closed. This means that you should not close the connection before the
beep is played completly.
BUGS
This commands requests the server for a default beep. No other kind of
beep can be send. There is in addition no way to tell the actual
length of the beep. The application should at least wait a bit more
than 512ms before closing the socket. In case possible it is good to
wait a minimum of about one secound to be really sure the beep ended.
