Ringing methods audibly (ring)

Synopsis

ring object_id tower_id

Description

To hear what a block (or a plain course of a method) sounds like, the ring command may be used; for example to ring a plain course of Grandsire Triples:

CRE> tower wilf "Harrogate St Wilfrid"
CRE> method gs7 "Grandsire" 7
CRE> set cover on
CRE> ring gs7 wilf

Touches, defined in blocks, may also be rung; for example:

CRE> block gs168 "168 Grandsire Triples" 7 14
CRE> touch gs168 gs7 PPPB
CRE> repeat gs168
CRE> set cover on
CRE> ring gs168 wilf

Ringing will stop at the end of the block (or if CTRL-C is pressed).

N.B. An error will occur if there are too few bells in the tower to ring the specified block or method.
