3541:0100 B0F3           MOV	AL,F3 
3541:0102 E660           OUT	60,AL                         ;'`'

3541:0108 E2FD           LOOP	0107 
3541:010A B002           MOV	AL,02 
3541:010C E660           OUT	60,AL                         ;'`'

The above is it. It's so short I didn't think anyone would mind its
being posted here. MOV AL,02 gives a speed I feel most comfortable
with. MOV AL,00 speeds typematic up even more, but this can be a hassle
if you leave your fingers on the keyboard even a bit too long. MOV
AL,04 gives a slower speedup.

This is a COM file, and should be able to be entered and saved directly
form DEBUG. I got it from somebody who I think saw it in PC Magazine or
the like; I don't know for sure, so I can't give credit where it is due.
