My kermit script beeps at me, seemingly whenever it experiences a
change of flow, and it makes me think it's beeping on any failure.
I have lots of "if fail goto retry" statements and every one seems
to produce a beep, although there are no beeps or Ctl-Gs or any
such statements anywhere in the script.
Is there a switch I can set to ask for silence on error? I assume
Kermit is somehow unhappy and beeps to announce the fact, but I
really need it to be quiet, so I can hear the real beep my ISP
gives me once the whole thing succeeds. I haven't been able to
find mention of such a switch in the manual, but I'm hoping I've
somehow missed it, or it's there but undocumented.
C-Kermit 6.0.192, 6 Sep 96, for Linux
Thanks in advance
