For example, I'd like to be able to use the xset command to be able to specify a file to play whenever XBell() is used. (Presumably the server would load the file into memory to cut down on disk access when beeping.) I guess so far this would only be possible on the SPARCstation 1 and the Next machine. -- -------------------------------------- rusty c. wright rusty@violet.berkeley.edu ucbvax!violet!rusty
