Am I right in thinking that >>>print "\a" should sound the system, 'bell'?
It works on the shell on Windows for me (WinXP).

Interesting. From a Cygwin bash shell I got an elegant little dingish
sort of a beep (my volume control was set kind of low). I then ran the
same code in a Windows shell and nearly deafened myself. It appears that
the volume control doesn't affect the Windows XP commans shell beep -
even muting the Windows audio output doesn't stop it (though it does
stop the Cygwin beep). This could cause heart attacks!
It's a weird thing. But if I run print "\a" from idle it does not work.
But if I save as a file, say, sound.py. Then run that with python
sound.py it does.
Why is that?
