Thanks for the idea and the patch. Although single-character flags are not uncommon in Vim, they are hard to read back. Newer options have short names, using a comma separated list. This would also allow a value such as "all" or "most". I think the default value should be empty, meaning no bell is suppressed. Then when users find the bell annoying in some situations they can add an entry to the option. This does imply that the name should be reversed: 'belloff'. Or perhaps 'shutup' ? :-) For the implementation, I would pass an argument to vim_beep() to specify when to not use the bell, then the handling of the option value only needs to be inside vim_beep(). -- hundred-and-one symptoms of being an internet addict: 135.
