6. Defining a Visible Bell

You can add the entry for the vb capability in your own termcap file, if it doesn't already define one. Dennis Henriksen (duke at diku.dk) suggested to insert the following line in the termcap entry for linux (note that the entry is called console in old distributions):

:vb=\E7\E[?5h\E[?5l\E[?5h\E[?5l\E[?5h\E[?5l\E[?5h\E[?5l\E8:\
The trailing backslash is used to escape the newline in the database. Dennis' code does the following (his own words):
  • Save the cursor position (uust a safety precaution).
  • Change the background color several times between normal and reverse.
  • Restore the cursor position.
