Turns ON or OFF the audibleness of ^G's when received. If ON, ^Gs should beep the terminal. When OFF, ^G's will be treated as other control characters and show up as G in the display. The setting of BEEP does not affect the beeps generated by the BEEP_ON_MSG variable and the BEEP_WHEN_AWAY variable.
