\H{config-bell} The Bell panel
The Bell configuration panel allows you to control how PuTTY should
respond to a terminal bell.
\S{config-bellstyle} Set the style of bell
When a terminal bell occurs, PuTTY can do one of the following things:
\b Nothing. The bell is disabled. Taskbar bell indication still
works, however.
\b Play Windows Default Sound. The Windows Default Sound (which can
be configured from the Sounds control panel) will be played.
\b Play a custom sound file. Select a \c{.wav} sound file using the
\e{Custom sound file to play as a bell} text box, or browse for the
file to play using the \e{Browse...} button.
\b Flash the terminal window as a visual bell. No sound will be
played.
In addition, the PuTTY window's title bar and its entry in the taskbar
can be configured to flash or invert to indicate that a terminal bell
has occurred.
\S{config-belloverload} Control the bell overload behaviour
Sometimes mistakes, for example trying to \c{cat} a binary file on a
Unix machine, can lead to a large number of terminal bells being
received by PuTTY. It might take a long time for PuTTY to catch up
with reacting to these bells, and the noise or flashing could be very
irritating for the user.
PuTTY's bell overload handling is designed to avoid this problem. If
turned on using the \e{Bell is temporarily disabled when over-used}
tick box, the bell will be disabled if it occurs more than a specified
number of times in a specified number of seconds. When no bells have
occurred for a number of seconds, PuTTY re-enables the bell.
