Beeping

This section describes how to make Emacs ring the bell (or blink the screen) to attract the user’s attention. Be conservative about how often you do this; frequent bells can become irritating. Also be careful not to use just beeping when signaling an error is more appropriate (see Errors).

Function: ding &optional do-not-terminate +
+

This function beeps, or flashes the screen (see visible-bell below). It also terminates any keyboard macro currently executing unless do-not-terminate is non-nil.

+
+
Function: beep &optional do-not-terminate +

This is a synonym for ding.

+
User Option: visible-bell +

This variable determines whether Emacs should flash the screen to represent a bell. Non-nil means yes, nil means no. This is effective on graphical displays, and on text terminals provided the terminal’s Termcap entry defines the visible bell capability (‘vb’).

+
User Option: ring-bell-function +

If this is non-nil, it specifies how Emacs should ring the bell. Its value should be a function of no arguments. If this is non-nil, it takes precedence over the visible-bell variable.
