The IDLE stdout/stderr handling is not invoking a system bell when it sees '\a'. I suppose that one could consider that a bug. If I were an IDLE developer/maintainer, I don't think I'd rate that as a very high prioirty bug though. :) Trent -- Trent Mick [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
