Most modern computers seem to support INT 16.03 to set the Typematic rate.
I've personally never had it fail with real hardware, but in some Virtual
Machines (VMs) it doesn't actually do anything.
I've had lots of failures with support of INT 16.09 to get the current
typematic rate, both in
Hi! Here is the related RBIL part for you:
B-1603---
INT 16 - KEYBOARD - SET TYPEMATIC RATE AND DELAY
AH = 03h
AL = subfunction
00h set default delay and rate (PCjr and some PS/2)
01h increase delay before repeat
Eric proposed:
"For this, you start DEBUG, then type:
a cs:100
mov ax,0305
mov bx,
int 16
int 20
g
q
"
As Ah=3 int 16h is marked as PCJr only:
INT 16 - KEYBOARD - SET DELAYS (PCjr ONLY)
REG AH = 3
AL = 0: RESET TYPEMATIC
AL = 1: INCREASE INITIAL DELAY
AL = 2: INCREASE CONTINUING DELAY
Tom,
In DOS I was able to press and hold a key and the key would repeat.
Great for arrow and page keys. For some reason this stopped workin
wow. one of these Asshole from Hell questions:
no information what DOS we are talkink about.
no information whatsoever about CONFIG.SYS/AUTOEXEC.BAT.
