Could someone send a patch to make C-g send an SMS? In http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2009-11/msg01291.html I proposed to add a new symbol property `error-bell' by analogy with properties `error-message' and `error-conditions' and with possible values t, nil and `visible', and to put this property with the value nil on `beginning-of-buffer', `end-of-buffer' and `keyboard-quit'. This makes possible to add more values later, e.g. `user-error' or even `send-sms' and `send-tweet'. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
