It is. Just X11 does not tell us.

And can't we fake it with e.g. using some function-static counter? As I can see from my dumps, X11 (on Mac OS X) it just sends many KEYINPUT events, so we can count/remember them...

Been there, done that :-). Unfortunately that doesn't work well with input methods. Waiting for no more (unfiltered) key events to happen is not an option. Looking ahead in the X queue for key events can do the trick, but will badly interact with input methods.


You can witness the repeat count at work in writer whereas most controls do not use it.

You mean that I can see it in Writer window?

Yes. A key event 'A' with repeat count 5 produces 5 'A' in there. At least it used to do.

Kind regards, pl
