BELL: Turn the Prompt Bell ON/OFF or Ring the Bell

Forms: BELL Y, BELL N, or BELL R
The VISTA prompt can be accompanied by a bell, if desired.
N
prevents the bell from ringing
Y
restores the bell with the prompt

When you begin running VISTA, the bell does not ring with the prompt. The 'BELL R' command is helpful in procedures for signaling the completion of some process, or for getting the your attention before occurrences of the ASK or STRING commands, which accept input.
