It was new; and now with my Dell, again, the beep that I like in vi/vim doesn't sound. i can write a C program to putchar('\007'); and the system sound here, altho thru my speakers rather than the computer itself. KDE has an emulator but so far I've only gotten to to make a strange sound. This under Ubuntu. Wrong wav file. How do I set up a bell.wav under gnome? I don't like and can't see the screen flash when I'm making sure my fingers hit the hright keys....more/less. tia, gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public Service Unix
