Hi, I have a question: What is the mysterious beep on a console program? I made a program that reads a *.exe file then displays it on the screen. I got a massive amount of beeps! Another example of a mysterious beep is: Open Command Prompt, Press Ctrl+G, then hit enter. It will beep? Why does this happen and how can I make it stop?

Jump to PostThe beep is due to an ASCII character, consoles read it as a beep.
I dunno how you can stop it, though.

I just looked it up on google. It said it was a "Bell Character" or something like that.
