bell — Ring a display's bell
bell ?-displayof window? ?-nice?
This command rings the bell on the display for window and
returns an empty string. If the -displayof option is
omitted, the display of the application's main window is used by
default. The command uses the current bell-related settings for the
display, which may be modified with programs such as xset.
If -nice is not specified, this command also resets the
screen saver for the screen. Some screen savers will ignore this,
but others will reset so that the screen becomes visible again.
