Is Key-Repeat Optional?

Is key-repeat an optional thing when using the torque 2D engine? I've noticed in some of the demos I've tried that key repeat appears to be disabled. I was also playing around with the GUI editor in one of the demos and key-repeat was disabled there as well. It works in the Space Shooter demo so I know key-repeat *can* work. I thought the behavior was curious so I figured I'd ask here.

I'm on the verge of purchasing t2d, but I'm trying to learn as much as I can before I buy.

Thanks in advance for any insight.

"key repeat" isn't really what you think... though I think you would be more than satisfied with the way it works, it gives you complete control of what happens when you press the key down and let the key back up :)

Of course! I think I became so fixated on the behavior that I wasn't thinking clearly. Brain slip... Thanks for the reply.
