Set of scripts, tweaks, and utilities to help tune/maintain a Windows machine for development purposes.
Default windows settings limiting typing/editing/navigation speed in the text editor.
Default settings is 250 ms delay before repeating of a pressed key and 30 repeats/seconds rate.
With a good keyboard, human reaction allows precise control with a 200 ms delay and 60 repeats/second, which can significantly speed up typing, navigation, and character deletion.
Important
You need to tune the latency of your system, otherwise you may encounter the false repeat problem with these aggressive settings.
