This is still a miracle. I proved the connection of my PC-Speaker to the mainboard but it beeps while turning the PC on... echo -e '\a' doesn't beep too ... d>And yet the two systems do behave differently. I wonder why. I agree but: _On the other hand:_ as Jochen suggested, with set meta-flag on set convert-meta off set output-meta on set input-meta on in ${HOME}/.inputrc all but one (the beep) latin1-chars appear at the bash-prompt! (I already had set meta-flag, output-meta and input-meta but not convert- meta) -- Tschau, Sönke.
