I don't remember >the exact syntax, but it should be in the DOS documentation.-- No, it is not in the DOS documentation. (Not at least below the quirky MsDos 4.0). You can change the typematic rate for an AT or 386 (the keyboard rate) e.g. by keyrate.exe which is in /pc/ts/tsutld18.arc. The feature is not available for XTs. The wares are available by anonymous ftp from garbo.uwasa.fi, Vaasa, Finland, 128.214.12.37, or by using our mail server (use the latter if, and only if you don't have anonymous ftp). If you are not familiar with anonymous ftp or mail servers, I am prepared to send prerecorded instructions on request. (If you don't get the instructions from me within a few days, it will mean that your email address cannot be reached by a simple email reply. Contact your system manager for devicing a proper mail path for you, because unless you do, you wouldn't be able to utilize the mail server anyway. If you are in North America first consider using an ftp site near you to spare the overseas load.) ...................................................................
