Tone (Frequency,Duration)

This command plays a note at Frequency cycles per second for a period of Duration 1/18 of a second. The reason it is in 1/18 seconds is because there is a standard interrupt that returns that time period. The IBM series computers are not music oriented machines so don't throw away your Compact Disk player.

The maximum duration is 255 1/18 of a second. Normally, MarxMenu will create a break in between notes equal to 1/8 of the duration of the note. If you want to eliminate the break and create a 'slur' (music term), add 256 to the duration. This tells MarxMenu to connect the notes without a break.
