How to ring the system bell many times without pause?
I am writing a ksh script in cygwin though it could just as easily be bash and am trying to make an alert for myself where the bell rings many times like
or
except I want it to ping me many times not just once. For some reason doing
or similar doesn't work and I don't want a scenario where I am doing a loop around something like
as the pause is not wanted. Is there any easy way to do it?
hi everybody,
I just installed Suse on an old Packard Bell.
When the install was at detecting my moden, it hung. I couldn't free it sooooo, I pressed ctrl+alt+backspace.
Yup that killed the process alright.
The machine went right down and upon reboot it is now at the KDE welcome page.

This may seem like an odd question, but I've heard that on old Alpha servers running OpenVMS, you could pause the system so that the OS is essentially suspended for a small period of time, then unpause it and it would pick up where it left off. During the pause, all CPU cycles would be halted, all... (3 Replies)
I am running OpenIndiana development version oi_148 32-bit on a seven-year-old Dell Inspiron 8600.
Seems to be running fine except for one particular annoyance: It freezes whenever a system bell/beep plays.
I have mitigated this by turning the system bell off in gnome-terminal, which I use... (3 Replies)

times
times(1) User Commands times(1)NAME
times - shell built-in function to report time usages of the current shell
SYNOPSIS
sh
times
ksh
times
DESCRIPTION
sh
Print the accumulated user and system times for processes run from the shell.
ksh
Print the accumulated user and system times for the shell and for processes run from the shell.
On this man page, ksh(1) commands that are preceded by one or two * (asterisks) are treated specially in the following ways:
1. Variable assignment lists preceding the command remain in effect when the command completes.
2. I/O redirections are processed after variable assignments.
3. Errors cause a script that contains them to abort.
4. Words, following a command preceded by ** that are in the format of a variable assignment, are expanded with the same rules as a vari-
able assignment. This means that tilde substitution is performed after the = sign and word splitting and file name generation are not
performed.
