I read that the \a sounds an alarm (bell). I tried using this script...

#! usr/bin/perl
use strict;
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "\aHello!\n";

The result is a little square box and the word Hello.

Anyone know why I don't get a bell sound>?
 
If that works it's going to be on the local machine only.. it's not going to work over a web site.
