For bash:

$ echo set bell-style none >> ~/.inputrc

Restart bash and enjoy :-) For explanations, see readline(3).

Try using sysctl hw.syscons.bell=0 ,that should stop the beeping on your 
console.

Re: beeping on console...NOT X - related question

2003-11-14 Thread William O'Higgins
On a related note, where do you set the amount of scrollback kept in the
console or xterm?  If I want to Shift-PageUp I can only go a few screens
before stopping.  I don't need to scroll back to the beginning of
something really silly like 'find / *e*', but I'd love to be able to get
back to the beginning of 'dmesg' (I know, I should pipe to 'less' or a file,
but I like being able to retrace my steps when I realize partway through
that I should have been running 'script').  Thanks.

yours,

William

# kbdcontrol -b off

See kbdcontrol(1) for various other things you can tweak about the way
the bell sounds.

Cheers,

It has nothing to do with your shell.

console beeping in the .cshrc or .bashrc file?
