Hi everyone,
(Ubuntu 8.1).
I would like to set up a filter key, which is not found in any existing keyboard accessibility features yet.
I would like to filter out the accidentaly pressed character, like filtering out the fast repetition of characters, but I want to apply it to the successively pressed DIFFERENT characters not to the same ones.
The idea is to measure the time between two successively (almost simultaneously) pressed keys, and if this time is less than the set value, the computer did not accept the second pressed character.
With this I want to filter out the not wanted characters (pressed accidentaly with the wanted one).
Does anyone know how to solve this? Thanks for the answers.

Did you figure out how to do that? Its pretty interesting and could be useful.

Hi,
I have not figure it out yet, no reply to the post at all, unfortunately. Yes, it could be very useful, I suffer very much from accidental pressing wrong keys. I keep waiting for the solution. Thanks.
