There is no visual bell in vt(4) and this doesn't affect xterm*visualBell obviously. But yes this does affect the bell in xterm (and so I guess any other terminal that default to have a bell) but that was also the point of this change. > We need to STOP these "I dont like the 20 year old defaults, > so I am going to change them to what I like and use" It is NOT > forward progress on making a better system, it is tilting at > defaults, very long established defaults, that should probably > just be left alone. It's not "I don't like", it's "We don't like". If we can't change FreeBSD default to what most of our users want I don't know why we're still working on this OS. > I dont like a lot of the defaults on a lot of OS's, I tweak them > to my needs.
