Hi, Jay:

Great to have you join the discussion

|The problem is that the IBM designers made the Keyboard autorepeat

|There is an actual CPU in the keyboard sending out this rubbish.

|things (many) done wrong in the PC.

Which means that, if I'm using the keyboard as my jog, I can change the
typematic rate and step the motors a little faster. Sounds like a good
addition for TurboCNC.
