Heavy hands on keyboard

2000-03-30 Thread Ralph Boland

I touch type (not overly well) and tend to hold my fingers
on the keys which sometimes results in a typed character
being repeated multiple times as a result of the autorepeat
feature of the keyboard.

For example I might accidentally mispell the word 
"form" as "fom".

I would like to invoke the  XAutoRepeatOff(display) function to turn
off the autorepeat feature.

Is there a way of doing this in lyx?  I don't know how I can
access the display structure that lyx uses when I envoke lyx.

I am running lyx 1.0.4 from a Sun workstation.

Thanks

Ralph Boland

And "xset r off" does not work for you?
"man xset" for more info.
