How To Disable the Bash Terminal Bell

Published Date Author: , Posted July 7th, 2015 at 1:48:47pm

The Readline library has a bell-style variable that controls what happens when Readline wants to ring the terminal bell. If set to ‘none’, Readline never rings the bell. If set to ‘visible’, Readline uses a visible bell if one is available. If set to ‘audible’ (the default), Readline attempts to ring the terminal’s bell.

Edit your ~/.inputrc file and add following line:

set bell-style none
