I am calling vim from a terminal on Lion OS X. I want to get rid of the audio ring and use only a visual ring. The documentation seems to indicate that I can accomplish this with :set vb. As soon as I :set vbissue, make the following settings:
:set vb? t_vb?
gives
visualbell
t_vb=
and the flash is clearly not working. The documentation indicates what t_vbshould be <Esc>|fthe default. Is not. I tried installing t_vbdirectly, but I can’t figure out what should be for creating a flash.
Also note that it does not work with mvim either. But in the case of mvim, it defaults to t_vb=^[|fno avail.
Does anyone have a visual call working on a Mac? If so, how did this work out?
