[TriLUG] Dumb Question: Terminal Beep Command

[Alan Porter]

Use 'vi' to create a two-liner shell script, like this:

    #!/bin/sh
    echo "<ctrl-V><ctrl-G>"


In vi, the ctrl-V will allow you to insert a literal character
next.  In this case, you'll have an ASCII 07 character in between
your quotes.
