My most useful BASIC command
Posted: Fri Dec 28, 2007 6:11 pm
Back in the old days when I used to create countless programs and games in BASIC, or for that matter whenever I powered on the C64, one of the first commands I would enter was:
It toggles on the keyboard auto repeat function.
When disabled (the default), if you stand on a key, the keystroke is registered only once.
When enabled (using the command above), if you stand on a key, the keystroke is repeated quickly (similar to a modern PC)
I thought I would share that; maybe someone else might find it useful.
Code: Select all
POKE 650,255When disabled (the default), if you stand on a key, the keystroke is registered only once.
