However, have you tried Jim Lambert's suggestion of using the keyUp

as repeated keyDown events; but it only sends a keyUp event when the key

If you're right I'll be embarrassed. ;) Used to be on Macs you got repeated keyups no matter what you did -- I remember having a terrible time with it, which is why I didn't even go there for this question. But I just did a quick test and it looks like it works as you'd expect now, which means your suggestion would be the right one.

Not sure how Windows works now. It used to provide discrete keydown and keyup messages as expected.
