From 5447ac45bc090e8f3269979af4db55f619c5f278 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andreas Wettstein Date: Sat, 15 Feb 2014 17:36:51 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] xkb: Suppress autorepeat for Set and Lock of Mods, Groups, and Controls The autorepeat for these actions was not correctly implemented, as the key repeat would be mistakenly interpreted as key releases. Rather than fixing this, this change simply disables autorepeat for Set/Lock actions, for two reasons: - Autorepeating Set/Lock keys make complicate the interactions of actions. - Autorepeating Set/Lock keys have no apparent benefit, but hurt in the real world for layouts such as de(neo): Neo has a Level5 shift on the LSGT key, and a Level5 lock on Level5 of the same key. This is unusable if LSGT autorepeats. However, disabling autorepeat for key LSGT completely is not ideal for users that have a "usual" layout besides Neo, where LSGT carries symbols.
