What am I missing? cygcheck.out attached Thanks for the report, and I'm still investigating. But it appears you are using cmd.com based on $TERM=cygwin. And in the readline source code, even if visible bells are requested, readline falls back on an audible bell if it can't figure out how to do a visible alert on your terminal. Therefore, my guess is that the cygwin termcap/terminfo entry lacks whatever string causes a visible bell (and more likely, the cygwin tty code lacks support for visible alerts altogether). - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
