Keyboard Lag

Did you know you can make your keyboard lag even less than the Preferences Pane allows you to, in Mac OS X? You can! From Terminal, write:


defaults write NSGlobalDomain KeyRepeat -int 0


Thank you:

Update (Aug 18th, 2014):

And to reduce the initial key repeat delay, type this in terminal:

defaults write NSGlobalDomain InitialKeyRepeat -int 4
Lower is faster, but the link recommends not setting it below 4. I'm about to try it now! :D
