When using the Jython Interactive Console in Windows XP (jython.bat), the system beep sound is made way too often. I'm referring to the internal system (motherboard?) beep, not the standard windows 'doonk' sound that comes through your speakers upon warnings or errors.

So far I have encountered the beep when trying to hit backspace/delete at the start of a line, and when hitting Alt+F4. There are probably other actions that cause it too. The sound is very loud and annoying, and seems a bit unnecessary. 

For comparison, Putty on windows makes the 'doonk' sound when backspacing nothing, and a standard cmd console (i.e. windows+r, cmd, enter) makes no sound at all for this.
