I am wondering if anyone knows a way to make this work. I am trying to get rid of the repeat wait on a getkey. Because it is very annoying to press and hold just to wait a few seconds before it repeats. My goal is to get it in only ti basic but I can't seem to work it out.

Code:

getKey
Ans+G(Ans=0)->G


Thanks.
Unfortunately, the OS is responsible for the delay before the key repeats (for all keys except the arrow keys), so there's nothing you can do from pure TI-BASIC other than use the arrow keys. If you're on a monochrome FLASH calculator (that is, TI-83 Plus/SE or TI-84 Plus/SE) and willing to use something in xLIB (also available in Doors CS) that many users should have available, it has the perfect solution: https://dcs.cemetech.net/index.php?title=BasicLibs:GetKey
