SYNOPSIS
kbdcontrol [-dFx] [-b duration.pitch | [quiet.]belltype] ...
[snip]
-b duration.pitch | belltype
Set the bell duration in miliseconds and pitch in hertz. If a
belltype argument is specified, it may be one of normal which set
sound parameters back to normal values, or visual which set the
bell to visual mode, i.e. flashes the screen instead. If
belltype is proceeded by the word quiet., the bell will not be
^^^^^^^^^
rung when the ringing process is in the background vty.
[snip]
I think that "proceeded" should be "precedted".
