    I allways used \007
    Code:
    printf("Say beep \007");
    This is the James Bond beep

    work on Bloodshed

    Check that your speaker volume is up. Or put in a CD and see if you can hear it playing. The codes given to you WILL work in Bloodshed Dev.
    Code:
    #include <cmath>
    #include <complex>
    bool euler_flip(bool value)
    {
        return std::pow
        (
            std::complex<float>(std::exp(1.0)), 
            std::complex<float>(0, 1) 
            * std::complex<float>(std::atan(1.0)
            *(1 << (value + 2)))
        ).real() < 0;
    }

    I don't think putting the volume up or putting a cd in it will make a difference. Because the beep uses an other speaker then your soundcard. The beep uses the same as your BIOS when you boot.
