Question

im a linux fan.

A few days ago i found tmux very useful.

Now im using it all day.
I run tmux on a remote shell and working there. On my local pc only one terminal working.
And i found interesting thing:
my mutt program is beeping when new mail arrives. And tmux is transferring this beep to my local PC, is there a way to run similar beep by any shell command ?
I want to use it for some command finishing sign.

Answer 1

I wrote a little script called beep.sh that I use for things like that:

#!/bin/bash
echo $'\a' > `/usr/bin/tty`
