The routine \fBflash\fR +flashes the screen, and if that is not possible, sounds the alert. If neither +alert is possible, nothing happens. Nearly all terminals have an audible alert +(bell or beep), but only some can flash the screen. +.SH RETURN VALUE +These routines return \fBOK\fR if they succeed in beeping or flashing, +\fBERR\fR otherwise. +.SH EXTENSIONS +SVr4's beep and flash routines always returned \fBOK\fR, so it was not +possible to tell when the beep or flash failed. +.SH PORTABILITY +These functions are defined in the XSI Curses standard, Issue 4. Like SVr4, it +specifies that they always return \fBOK\fR. +.SH SEE ALSO +\fBcurses\fR(3X) +.\"# +.\"# The following sets edit modes for GNU EMACS +.\"# Local Variables: +.\"# mode:nroff +.\"# fill-column:79 +.\"# End: |
