Has this been suggested before? Could computers and turtles emit a sound? It would be useful for finding lost turtles (turtle.dig(); turtle.place() doesn't work in all situations and has a short range) but could also play a tune for when the front door is opened. Booting computers could beep :)/> I'm thinking of a simple sine wave tone. Like on the old computers that had floppies and fat monitors (the style of ComputerCraft).

Implementing this might be too hard (no pre-made audio file, it's generated runtime).

There are peripherals that can do this. MiscPeripherals, Immibis peripherals (iirc), and several others.
