Hi! Big fat +1 to defaulting bell-style to either "none" or "visible".
As just discussed on #pipewire, emulating the bell on machines w/o a hardware pc speaker is off by default because "most people want to rip out the beeper". And that's specifically because of bash & co beeping whenever you press backspace or tab. The bell is supposed to alert the user that something is wrong (or that a long-running task on a remote server is done...), not to make a racket during normal use. Thus: for the love of father Dagon and mother Hydra, could you please silence the bell by default? /usr/share/readline/inputrc # do not bell on tab-completion # set bell-style none # set bell-style visible ⬑ one of these Meow! -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ Quis trollabit ipsos trollos? ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀⠀
