if you use inkey$ or input$ it takes the input and adds a small delay before letting that input repeat. that's built into bios or the dos API somewhere. you'd have to hold it for a full second before it starts to repeat. but if such is a real problem, use a proper key buffer to input from key releases. then you can really use special keys like alt and ctrl.
