Getting a keypress to repeat with irxevent

[tarek L. <ta...@ta...>]

Hey guys!

I failed miserably at getting lircd to work on my own linux.. however I 
now have it hooked up via a null port to my laptop's winlirc, which 
works.. The only issue, though, is that as I use irxevent, keypresses 
don't repeat.. so I have to remove my finger from the button and replace 
it to get the next keypress.. 

This is particularly prohibitive when one considers that I use the remote 
to scroll massive quantities of menus.. 

So, the question I have is: How can I make it so that when I hold down a 
button (lircd sees the repeats), irxevent processes it as multiple key 
presses?

Thanks : )
