The SET AUTOREPEAT (abbreviated SE AUTOREPEAT) command enables EDT's use of the DECARM VT100 control sequence to prevent keypad, function and arrow keys from repeating faster than EDT can update the screen. If you do not want EDT to manipulate the VT100's autorepeat feature, use SET NOAUTOREPEAT (abbreviated SE NOAUTOREPEAT). On some VT100-class terminals, SET AUTOREPEAT can cause the arrow keys to repeat at the rate of 2 per second rather than the usual 30 per second. With SET NOAUTOREPEAT the arrow keys repeat faster, but the screen is not updated for each repeat of the arrow key, since EDT skips intermediate updates if it gets behind. Format: SET [NO]AUTOREPEAT
