Hey all!
So if anyone who runs Mystic on Linux knows, the Page SysOp option on the
main menu is broken. Choosing it doesn't do anything. While a few folks have
done what I have done, I assume, I wanted to just lay out what steps I took
for future SysOps or people trying it out, to know how you can get this
feature working. So I wrote up a blog post for my BBS blog and wanted to
share it here...

TL;DR: I installed mpg123 and used the that to play an mp3 of a Star Trek SFX
that I made a 30 second loop of, while having Mystic show a box to the user
letting them know the Sysop has been paged.
73!
