System Beep

 [1/8] from: coussement::c::itc::mil::be at: 19-Feb-2001 16:21


It should be a good solution, but I'm working with Command, which does not support 'browse... I should have mention it in my mail: sorry for that ;-\ Thanks anyway ! chr==

Very clever work around. Works in Win98, needless to say (different directory, of course). -Scott

OK, since I wrongly advised you about renaming files on network drives, here's how to make standard Windows beeps in Command: MB_OK: 0 MB_ICONHAND: 16 MB_ICONQUESTION: 32 MB_ICONEXCLAMATION: 48 MB_ICONASTERISK: 64 user32lib: load/library %user32.dll MessageBeep: make routine! [ utype [ int ] return: [ int ] ] user32lib "MessageBeep" MessageBeep MB_ICONHAND free user32lib Note that sounds for different types of message boxes can be configured in Windows Control Panel, they are quite annoying so some people turn them off entirely.

Hi REBOLians: Does anyone know how to generate a "system beep" with REBOL under WinNT ? I need it to mark the end of long processes... Best regards, chr==

Have you tried print "^G" that's the "BEL" code on most systems. Chris -- New sig in the works Explorer2260 Designer and Coder http://www.starforge.co.uk

Hi, from REBOL/View you can do: browse "c:/winnt/media/notify.wav" and if a dialog box appears, say that you don't want to be asked every time you open a file with .wav suffix. HTH, -- Michal Kracik CRS - Psy Sel/SPO, COUSSEMENT Christophe, CPN wrote:

[ Thanks Michal, I was looking that way, but you spare me a lot of thinking work ! I just tried it and it works OK. ]
