command() does not seem to autorepeat
I am trying to configure some key combo to scroll the mouse wheel. I didn't find any way to do that natively with keyd, so I configured a mapping to run ydotool:
[main]
capslock = overload(maxtend, backspace)
[maxtend]
w = command(YDOTOOL_SOCKET=/run/user/1000/.ydotool_socket ydotool mousemove -w -- 0 +10)
When I press capslock+w I get one scroll action, but it does not autorepeat. Is this a limitation of command(), is it a bug, or am I doing something wrong?
That subject has been discussed in the past in #316. However, I too would be happy if command actions were repeatable.
