Hello,

 print chr hex 7 sounds a beep on the speaker. What could I do for sounding it again and again without the previous noising the next. I've yet done this:
while(1){
    $a=1;
    while($a<1500){
        print "ACORDA ";
        #en: WAKEUP
        $a++;
    }
    print chr hex 7;
};

But it is clear 1500 is not recommended as a best practice. In other words, is there some objective way of wating for a beep while not shooting the next? Is this some kind of ASCII-specialized question or Perl may deal on it? Thanks!
