on my laptop and possibly other hardware beeps are annoyingly loud and there's no switch or anything. Nedit beeps when search failed (nothing found) which happens rather often.
Would be thankful for a "beep never" button.

    I don't think you'll need switches on your hardware. Normally, I use alsamixer or something to tune the volume. Anyway, there is a toggle 'beep on search wrap' under Preferences->Default Settings->Searching, so it shouldn't be too hard to patch the sources such that there are no beeps. (Just a reminder of the advantages of Free Software.)

    ok here is my quick and dirty fix :
    cd nedit-5.5-src/source
    sed -i 's+XBell+//XBell+g' *.c
