Typematic Rate Setting
This determines if the typematic rate is to be used. When disabled, continually
holding down a key on your keyboard will generate only one instance. In other
words, the BIOS will only report that the key is down. When the typematic rate is
enabled, the BIOS will report as before, but it will then wait a moment, and, if the
key is still down, it will begin the report that the key has been depressed
repeatedly. For example, you would use such a feature to accelerate cursor
movements with the arrow keys.
