Repeated key presses don't register in Vim

[jdsimcoe]

If I press and hold a navigation key in vim like h or j the repeat doesn't register like it does in Terminal/iTerm.

Using 0.3.1 ?

[jdsimcoe]

that was using master with the latest stuff

[jdsimcoe]

I'm testing it now and it is fine... Closing this @rauchg.

MacOS High Sierra 10.13.3 using Hyper 2.0.0-canary.14 with no plugins I am currently experiencing the same issue. I can't press and hold a key for a repeat.

@Caryyon Thanks for reporting this error🙏

@albinekb @chabou This error I thought it had been fixed in the canary version 🙍 😞

[chabou]

@mapeso You just have to search 'repeat' in issues to find: #2297 😄

Everything is explained and there is some workaround.

@chabou Thanks friend 😺

@jdsimcoe you could close this. There is a better spot for it as well as I found out that it was because of the little character popup that mac has. I disabled it and i can repeat now!

going off of @Caryyon ... i used this for mac OS
defaults write -g ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false

[ralyodio]

thiw still doesnj't work.

[jdsimcoe]

@chovy Try doing this in Terminal or Hyper:

defaults write co.zeit.hyper ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false

This same issue and workaround is referenced here: #2297 (comment).
