Slightly more fundamnetally complex, but it wouldn't bee too hard if
you're not *too* picky about the *exact* frequency you want to output.
What will probably suck, though, is getting ahold of a perl binding
for libogg and enough of libvorbis to set a few packet fields.

I'd expect you'd want to build the tone packets directly from the
spectral math you'd need for a given sine wave; preecho would be
vaguely irrelevant.

Yes... but it depends on what perl bindings already exist. Building
the vorbis packets in Perl wouldn't be too bad (I expect you only need
a couple 'canned' packets), but stitching them into the Ogg stream
would require a bit more code if Ogg code isn;t already available.
