   I use a program that connects to a server online.  Any changes that   
   occur on the server show up in the program as one or more lines of text.   
     However, the program lacks something like an audible alert.  Is it   
   possible to highlight some area of my screen (say within the program)   
   and when changes occur, another program (or script?) produces a short   
   beep to notify me of changes?  I know in Firefox, I used to had an add   
   on that would monitor changes on a website and then alert me.  I could   
   select a specific area of the website for changes, or the entire   
   website. It would be nice to do the same thing within the text box of   
   the monitoring program I am using.  Thanks in advance.
