FreeDOS: Microsoft Programmer's Workbench Keyboard Too Fast
Posted by welcomeOhm@reddit | vintagecomputing | View on Reddit | 3 comments
Not sure if this is the right forum, but I couldn't find anywhere else to post it.
I've installed MASM (Microsoft's assembler) in FreeDOS, and the keyboard speed in the Programmer's Workbench is way too fast to be usable. The same problem doesn't occur with EDIT or other programs. Does anyone have an idea of what is going on and how to fix it?

Keyboard speed? Do you mean key repeat?

Yes, when I press a key it repeats across the entire screen in half a second. But this is only in Programmer's Workbench: the other programs (like Edit) work fine.

Huh. What kind of hardware and BIOS? Figured that was all INT9 from the BIOS
