The following command is supposed to sound a 'bell', but does not
produce any sound output on my machine:
echo -e '\a'
If I output a ^G using Window's echo command, I do get a beep.
I am not using X-Windows. I am using Windows 'command prompt' window
running bash.
Does Cygwin lack the ability to sound the computer's bell? If not,
what do I need to change to fix this?
