Programming question.
 
Hello,

How would I program zMUD to beep whenever there is activity on the MUSH that I'm playing?

Thanks.

P.S. I need seriously detailed instructions, because I'm a programming idiot.

What, beep on any and every activity? Does nothing much happen in your mush? Or is that specific type of activity you want beeped on, and if so paste a sample "activity".

No, beep on every activity. My MUSH is very quiet right now, and sometimes it's easy to miss when someone logs on or something happens. So, yes, I want it to beep when anything happens.

Uh... that may be it. Exactly where would I put that piece of code?

I told you that I was a programming moron.

Thanks,

Just paste that code on your commandline, where you type all other things

Oh, cool. So what would I then do to disable it?

Thanks so much,
