<div style="color:black;font: 10pt Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I might be mistaking what you're saying but, on OSX if key repeats are off in the system preferences (at least when pd starts) then they will not repeat from the [key] & [keyname] objects

Dear Dan and everyone contributing to this issue,<br clear="none"><br clear="none">I kinda felt this is a sensitive topic but was not aware of the amount<br clear="none">of frustrating work that has already gone into it.

From my point of view, we should enjoy what works as it is and remember that for some people, the key handling should respect the general system as opposed to being Pd-specific.
