Actually ability to beep is somewhat controversal ability in its current 
implementation, since there is no way to disable it and at least on some 
machines (i.e. my current and previous notebook) there is no way to mute 
speaker using mixer controls either. It is very annoying when the shell 
beeps loudly on file completion in the situations when silence is really 
necessary.
