["Jason Dillon (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GSHELL-156?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12668766#action_12668766 ] 

Jason Dillon commented on GSHELL-156:
-------------------------------------

I'm tempted to leave it in there just to annoy windows users, *nix and Mac OSX (which is a *nix system btw) don't disregard the bell, its just easier to configure if its on or off.

I suggest you a) switch to a real operating system or b) google how to disable the bell from your cmd.exe (or whatever console app you are using).

> On WIndows, attempting to backspace at the beginning of a line causes the system bell to sound, thereby knocking many a user off their chair.  I would recommend disabling this for the sake of Windows users.  *nix systems and Mac OSX shells seem to disregard the system bell commands by default so disabling the system bell in the ConsoleReader by default shouldn't affect them adversely.
