Typematic Rate Setting
This determines if the typematic rate is to be used. When this setting is
disabled, only a press on keyboard will be sensored even if the con-
tinual presses on keyboard are generated. 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 move-
ments with the arrow keys.
