bell() function never gets called

[npezza93]

It doesn't appear the bell() function is ever getting called. I was trying to play with what sound gets played but I couldn't get the function to be called. I made sure to set visualBell and popOnBell to true. Is there a config I am missing?

In Terminal.app if you press the down arrow you get a sound and same goes with Hyper.

Details

• Browser and browser version:
• OS version: MacOS Sierra
• xterm.js version: latest

Steps to reproduce

1. Press the down arrow

Terminal.prototype.bell = function() {
  if (!this.visualBell) return;
  var self = this;
  this.element.style.borderColor = 'white';
  setTimeout(function() {
    self.element.style.borderColor = '';
  }, 10);
  if (this.popOnBell) this.focus();
};

You're right, it doesn't seem to do much currently.

hyper/hterm does this by loading in an ogg data uri:
