How to disable beeping in shell? Using mks toolkit


I am using mks toolkit in widows. I want to disable beeping
in bash/ksh. I tried to put:
"set bell-style none" in .ksh/.bash but this did not work.
It seems this is the only approach I could find online.
Any other way can I try?

Thanks.

Don't know...that's a question for the MKS Toolkit people. In LINUX, that command works.

after doing some research, finally I found one solution: (may have more)
set -o noerrorbells
