Re-eanble key repeat speed in macOS Sequoia
#!/bin/bash
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# One thing I found frustrating was that setting key repeat delay and key
# repeat speed in System Settings was having no effect. Keys that had
# diacritics still just popped up the special character popover, and keys
# without didn’t do anything at all when held. Finally figured out the
# solution, which I’m posting here mostly so I can easily find it next time
# this happens.
