XkbSetAutoRepeatRate(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbSetAutoRepeatRate(3)
NAME
XkbSetAutoRepeatRate - Sets the attributes of the RepeatKeys control for a keyboard device
SYNOPSIS
Bool XkbSetAutoRepeatRate ( display, device_spec, timeout, interval )
Display * display ;
unsigned int device_spec ;
unsigned int timeout ;
unsigned int interval ;
ARGUMENTS
- display
connection to X server
- device_spec
device to configure, or XkbUseCoreKbd
- timeout
initial delay, ms
- interval
delay between repeats, ms
DESCRIPTION
The core protocol allows only control over whether or not the entire keyboard or individ-
ual keys should auto-repeat when held down. RepeatKeys is a boolean control that extends
this capability by adding control over the delay until a key begins to repeat and the rate
at which it repeats. RepeatKeys is coupled with the core auto-repeat control: when
RepeatKeys is enabled or disabled, the core auto-repeat is enabled or disabled and vice
versa.
Auto-repeating keys are controlled by two attributes. The first, timeout, is the delay
after the initial press of an auto-repeating key and the first generated repeat event. The
second, interval, is the delay between all subsequent generated repeat events. As with all
boolean controls, configuring the attributes that determine how the control operates does
not automatically enable the control as a whole.
XkbSetAutoRepeatRate sends a request to the X server to configure the AutoRepeat control
attributes to the values specified in timeout and interval.
XkbSetAutoRepeatRate does not wait for a reply; it normally returns True. Specifying a
zero value for either timeout or interval causes the server to generate a BadValue proto-
col error. If a compatible version of the Xkb extension is not available in the server,
XkbSetAutoRepeatRate returns False.
RETURN VALUES
True The XkbSetAutoRepeatRate function returns True normally.
False The XkbSetAutoRepeatRate function returns False if a compatible version of
the Xkb extension is not available in the server.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadValue An argument is out of range
