  <p>By default, when you hold down a key on your keyboard, the letter
 
24
  or symbol will be repeated until you release the key. If you have
 
25
  difficulty picking your finger back up quickly enough, you can
 
26
  disable this feature, or change how long it takes before key presses
 
27
  start repeating.</p>
