Just out of curiosity how can a beep sound be generated?
My interest in this came about because echo -e '\a' no longer works. Also print
'\a' doesn't work, presumably for the same reason. The following is also mute:
import Tkinter
Tkinter.Tk().bell()
Print '\a', under Idle, causes a bell icon to be displayed so it seems that the
lack of a beep is due to a system setting.
Would you like us to guess what system you are running? Linux, Mac OS, Windows,
FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Android, something else? My guess is... Windows XP. Am I
close?
Is your sound volume on and not muted?
Can you play other sounds?
Does your terminal have the "Terminal Bell" enabled?
