[PD-dev] autorepeat with [key], [keyup], and [keyname]

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

I am working with the core keyboard objects and I noticed that when the 
key auto-repeats, these objects ([key], [keyup], and [keyname]), send a 
stream of alternating 0's and 1's.  I think that the correct way to do 
auto-repeat would just be to send out 1's for each repeat event, rather 
than alternating 0's and 1's.  The current condition makes it very hard 
to use the keys in their held state.

I would like to file a bug report, but I am wondering if there is any 
reason to keep the current behavior.  Attached is a patch that 
illustrates my point.
