Hi folks,
I am trying to switch to zsh from bash. Haven't really gotten many of the benefits yet as I need to learn the advanced globbing syntax, but it seems nice so far. However, the beep is driving my crazy. for ages I've had my bash beep set to a flash, which is far less annoying. in zsh this is apparently accomplished with the ZBEEP shell parameter, but I can't make it work. does anyone have ZBEEP set to a value that actually works for them?
I should say, I am using GNOME and gnome-terminal, which, unlike konsole, does not have an option for changing the bell to a flash, so I think this would have to be accomplished in the shell itself.
I don't care what desktop environment you use, gnome-terminal is a pile of buggy shit. Just use konsole (or even xterm is an improvement).
Sakura is my go to terminal now. It along with oh-my-zsh is a lovely setup if you're new to zsh. It's gigantic, but once you get an idea of what you want you can then pare it down. I have a customized zshrc with years worth of additions so I don't use oh-my-zsh, but I can see the appeal with the colorize and git plugins amongst others. Cheers, Jamon
