# In macOS, when a key is held down while entering text, a popup is shown which lets one choose between various accented | |
# forms of the character. To disable this execute the following command-line in the Terminal.app: | |
defaults write -g ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool false | |
# Now, you'll need to log-out and log back in. This should disable the display of the popup and character typed should | |
# start repeating when the key is held down. | |
# If you ever wish to return to this behaviour, execute the following command-line in the Terminal.app: | |
defaults write -g ApplePressAndHoldEnabled -bool true | |
# You'll need to log-out and log back in again for the setting to take effect. |
