Checking the phone/Screen

I want the Unix-PC to beep whenever line one rings (for example,
if I'm using line 2). If I can read the contents of /dev/w2 (the
phone manager's window), this would be easy; just read it and look
for "RING".
 
Alternativly, if I could find out when the phone is ringing, without
interfearing with the current phone manager, then I could do it.

Does anyone know how to do either of these, or if not, another
way to accomplish this beeping?
