    How to make XTERM make noise when end of line or other?

    Hello

    I would like to run a wav when some actions under xterm, i.e. to make XTERM make noise when end of line or other?.

    I saw that
    xset -b
    can be used, but how to set a wav file for that ?
    xterm has ringing bell and visual bell

    Best regards

    content of .xkb/xkbevd.cf
    Code:
    soundDirectory  = ""
    soundCmd        = "mplayer"
    
    Bell()                  "~/sounds.wav"
    Bell(ImAlive)           "~/sound.wav"

    then do:
    xkbevd -bg


    Disable the Automatic Sound
