Hello All,

I have been facing issue in disabling newly added feature "Press and Hold  for 
Certain keys" on Lion for a my application.  It is OS behavior has been 
implemented for cases in which the user presses and holds down certain keys 
while editing text. Instead of repeating the key, this new behavior provides a 
mechanism for entering alternative (usually accented) forms. So this feature 
can be turned off or turned on by setting key ApplePressAndHoldEnabled to NO or 
YES(According to Developer release notes: 
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#releasenotes/Cocoa/AppKit.html) . I 
would like to set it NO for my application i.e. just wanted to disable this 
feature.(as my application allows text Editing) . I have been searching for 
ways to do. I have found following ways.

1.       defaults write -g ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool  false .But this 
disables feature for entire system.

2.       I have tried with setting defaults for my application with 
ApplePressAndHoldEnabled being NO. I can even read defaults for my application 
using
defaults read < my application bundle-identifier >
Still I am unable to see "Press and Hold  for Certain keys" feature disable for 
my application.

It's being mentioned in the Developer release notes that we can disable this 
feature for a specific application. So, can anybody provide any  pointer or 
suggestions.
Thanks in advance .

Regards,
Vaibhao Mahore
