How can I modify the keyboard repeat delay in a linux console, with or without ncurses
I'm writing a little pong clone with ncurses and C. I need to find a way to set the keyboard repeat delay to make it easier for a player to move the paddle, otherwise they are stuck hitting the down key and waiting about 50 milliseconds until the ke开发者_运维问答y begins to repeat.
I've checked the ncurses man pages and documentation, and I can't seem to find any reference to changing keyboard repeat delays, also the program kbdrate is not suitable for my use, because it would be a bit strange for a game to ask to be run as root.
Thanks, Emmanuel
How about capturing the keydown and the repeatedly checking to see if the key is up yet?
