Typematic Rate Setting

This item sets 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.
When this item is set to Enabled, the following two sub-items appear.
Typematic Rate (Chars/Sec)
This item sets the rate (in characters/second) at which the keys are accelerated.
Typematic Delay (Msec)
This item sets the delay (in msecond) between when the key was first
depressed and when the acceleration begins.
