+.SH NAME
+\fBcurs_beep\fR: \fBbeep\fR, \fBflash\fR - \fBncurses\fR bell and screen flash routines
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fB#include <ncurses.h>\fR
+
+\fBint beep(void);\fR
+.br
+\fBint flash(void);\fR
+.br
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The \fBbeep\fR and \fBflash\fR routines are used to alert the terminal user.
+The routine \fBbeep\fR sounds an audible alarm on the terminal, if possible;
+otherwise it flashes the screen (visible bell). The routine \fBflash\fR
+flashes the screen, and if that is not possible, sounds the alert. If neither
+alert is possible, nothing happens. Nearly all terminals have an audible alert
+(bell or beep), but only some can flash the screen.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+These routines always return \fBOK\fR.
+.SH CAPABILITIES
+\fBbell\fR, \fBflash_screen\fR.
