==== Disable bells and beeps in terminal windows ====

For example, when you get annoying beeps when using vi on Red Hat linux:

<code>
xset -b
</code>

Edit /etc/inputrc and add this line:

<code>
set bell-style none
</code>

If you are using GNOME, you can do the following: \\
Choose Preferences--> Keyboard-->no beep
