+@item Identifying header:
+@command{Command: set-keyboard-rate}
+
+@item Action:
+Set the repeat rate and repeat delay on a keyboard.
+
+@item Optional header: @code{Rate}
+A floating point value of the repeat rate, measured
+in cycles per second (hertz). Zero means no repeat.
+
+@item Optional header: @code{Delay}
+An unsigned 16-bit integer of the number of milliseconds
+to wait before the first time a key is repeated. Zero
+means that the delay is matched with the rate, that is
+the reciprocal of the rate.

+Use the keyboard's built in repeat feature when

+Enable the user to configure the repeat rate and repeat
