I would like to be able to set the autorepeat and delay keyboard
settings on the current Sun4 machines to an equivalent DEC 5000 setting.
I could possibly reconfigure the default Xsun settings with appropriate
-ar1 and -ar2 arguments, but I realize that this would cause a hostile
Athena Sysadmin reaction.
Ideally there would be an xset or such utility that would allow me to
change the autorepeat and delay values to any value I desired, possible
to zero. That would be great.
I am displeased at the current settings because they are too slow.
Moving around in an emacs buffer is like watching molasses pour out of a
bottle.
Thanks,
- Jay
