       Name          : Page sysop to chat
       Optional Data : <Paging string>

       This function will display  the <paging string>  to the user
       and page  the  sysop  for a chat  by  playing  a paging tune
       sounded at the local console.  If the REASON FOR PAGE option
       has been enabled in RACONFIG,  RemoteAccess will  display  a
       user-defined  prompt   and  wait  for  the  user to  enter a
       reason  for  requesting the chat.    When  the  paging  tune
       sounds the sysop may select "C"  to chat with the  user,  or
       "A" to abort the page.

       You may break in for a  chat at any time by pressing  ALT-C.
       If the  remote is  using an IEMSI-compatible  terminal which
       supports the IEMSI full-screen  chat flag, RemoteAccess will
       initiate  a split-screen  chat session.  To force  the "old"
       style line-oriented chat, hold down  the left SHIFT key when
       you press ALT-C.

       All sysop  keys are  listed in the reference section of this
       manual.  During a chat, the system timer  is  "frozen",  and
       is re-started  when  the  chat  is   terminated.  The  sysop
       terminates chat  mode  with the  ESCape  key.  During  chat,
       you may open a capture file  to record  what is  said during
       the  chat  session  by pressing CTRL-A,  and  again to close
       the capture.  If you have set  the "Auto log"  option in the
       Paging options of RACONFIG  to on, RemoteAccess  will open a
       chat log automatically upon entering chat.

       The times at which a user is allowed to page the sysop for a
       chat and  the number of times a user is allowed to request a
       chat in one  session  is controlled in  RACONFIG.   You  can
       override  the times at which  users can page you by pressing
       ALT-O  when  a  user is  on-line  and selecting  between the
       options.

       The default paging sound is a  constant "beep-beep" tone for
       the duration of the page. You may define your own page sound
       by creating  a  text  file  called  PAGE.RA  in  the  system
       directory. The following keywords are valid:

          TONE [hz] [1/100's sec]   (sounds hz)
          WAIT [1/100's sec]        (sounds nothing)

       The following  table lists  several musical octaves  and the
       correct frequency value associated with each note:

          Note  Oct - 1    2    3    4    5    6
