XkbGetAutoRepeatRate(3) 					   XKB FUNCTIONS					   XkbGetAutoRepeatRate(3)

NAME

       XkbGetAutoRepeatRate - Gets the current attributes of the RepeatKeys control for a keyboard device

SYNOPSIS

       Bool XkbGetAutoRepeatRate (Display *display, unsigned int device_spec, unsigned int *timeout_rtrn, unsigned int *interval_rtrn);

ARGUMENTS

       - display
	      connection to X server

       - device_spec
	      desired device ID, or XkbUseCoreKbd

       - timeout_rtrn
	      backfilled with initial repeat delay, ms

       - interval_rtrn
	      backfilled with subsequent repeat delay, ms

DESCRIPTION

       The  core  protocol  allows  only  control  over  whether  or not the entire keyboard or individual keys should auto-repeat when held down.
       RepeatKeys is a boolean control that extends this capability by adding control over the delay until a key begins to repeat and the rate	at
       which  it repeats. RepeatKeys is coupled with the core auto-repeat control: when RepeatKeys is enabled or disabled, the core auto-repeat is
       enabled or disabled and vice versa.

       Auto-repeating keys are controlled by two attributes. The first, timeout, is the delay after the initial press of an auto-repeating key and
       the  first  generated  repeat event. The second, interval, is the delay between all subsequent generated repeat events. As with all boolean
       controls, configuring the attributes that determine how the control operates does not automatically enable the control as a whole.

       XkbGetAutoRepeatRate queries the server for the current values of the RepeatControls control attributes, backfills timeout_rtrn and  inter-
       val_rtrn  with  them,  and  returns  True. If a compatible version of the Xkb extension is not available in the server XkbGetAutoRepeatRate
       returns False.

RETURN VALUES

       True	      The XkbGetAutoRepeatRate function returns True if a compatible version of the Xkb extension is available in the server.

       False	      The XkbGetAutoRepeatRate function returns False if a compatible version of the Xkb extension is not available in the server.
