Can somebody *please* make the ctrl-g in WB 1.4 generate a beep?
I have this nifty 40watt stereo AMP setup just for my Amiga 2000
speaker system, yet the silly thing can't generate a simple "beep".

I use VI on a terminal most the time, but occasionally use it on
the amiga.  On a terminal when I realize I had just typed
too many ESC's; I find myself cringing waiting for the subsequent
audible ctrl-g just because on the Amiga a ctrl-g transforms
the monitor into an orange light bazooka which fires a full blast
into my face.  Somebody please fix this.  I want VI to give
me my "beep" in a frequency I can hear; not one I can see.
