Thanks!!! >> Best, > > .-) All this enthusiasm puzzles me. Why would one ever want the computer to BEEP? When I did configuration on system wide-scale, instead of just brining in all the config files from remote systems, the first thing I ever did was to disable every single sound the computer would ever think of making. The second thing I did was to disable the cursor blink, which I consider visual noise, everywhere - quite a few places, actually, even if you use Emacs 23 if not 24/7. The third thing I did was put the background image to pamela.bmp ha ha... eheh. No, sound. Why? But TEHO etc etc. -- underground experts united http://user.it.uu.se/~embe8573
