keyboard repeat in vterm not working #56

Closed slartibart70 closed 7 months ago

slartibart70 commented 7 months ago

If i connect to a remote linux instance (fedora38, wayland) to a GUI, the keyboard connected to the server sends 'auto-repeat' characters if i press a key long enough (as totally expected). But, if i switch to a vterm on the target (Ctrl-Alt-3, 4, ...) in text-only mode, the keyboard does not send repeats. Single key events are transported properly.

Any idea how to fix this?

I was able to reproduce the bug on my X11 machine too.

I believe it may be due to rkvm not setting EV_REP values properly.

Fixed in 0.6.0.
