What's the beep script like? Do you use the terminal bell or does it synthesize a tone?

Here is my beep script, it's almost embarrassingly basic. You can pick a different sound, I wanted one that wasn't too offensive/harsh and I've used this for 3-4+ years.

#!/bin/bash

afplay -v 3 /System/Library/Sounds/Glass.aiff
