In my terminal (gnome-terminal), it works without the Enter. Just as a test of PC speaker, this looks fine to me. It is utterly useless in scripts, though.

Surprising downvotes. This does work on some PC's, it might not work on all though.

It doesn't work on rxvt, urxvt, xterm, lxterm or lxterminal, shouldn't my terminal at least flash if it has a visual bell?
