I recently got a version of epoch 4.0a0 and compiled it.  It works great
except for the occasional keyboard bounce. I will get about 8 repeats
of the same character. I am running epoch 4.0a0, under sunos4.1.1 (sparc)
with an X11R5 server (clients are compiled under R4). I start up the
server with key repeat and delay options of 250 milliseconds and 30 milliseconds.
Adjusting this does not change the key bounce problem. I do not have this
problem with straight emacs 18.57.

Does anyone know if this a problem with X11R5 or a strange interaction with epoch?

I am addicted to epoch now that I have tried it and really hate to just run
plain emacs now.
