Zhao) Organization: University of WI-Milwaukee Lines: 16 Keywords: VI, Bells Xref: utgpu junk:5978 comp.unix.questions:3917 Just a couple of quick questions 1. I would like to disable the bells in VI ( caused , say, by two Esc), seems that 'set noerrorbells' doesn't stop the bell. What is the problem? If two Esc are not considered an error why ring the bell in the first place ? Am I missing something ? 2. I remember a while back someone mentioned ' visual bells' in Vi, that is instead of a bell the screen flashes should an error occur. Can someone tell me how to do this ? Any help is greatly appreciated. ---------------------------------------------- ARPA: zhao@csd4.milw.wisc.edu BITNET zhao%csd4.milw.wisc.edu@wiscvm.bitnet UUCP uwmcsd1!csd4!zhao
