/**
* \file bell.h Ring the bell or flash the screen
*
* Sometimes, X programs "ring the bell", whatever that means. Metacity lets
* the user configure the bell to be audible or visible (aka visual), and
* if it's visual it can be configured to be frame-flash or fullscreen-flash.
* We never get told about audible bells; X handles them just fine by itself.
*
* The visual bell was the result of a discussion in Bugzilla here:
* <http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=99886>.
