We are running Gnu Emacs 18.47.1 and I cannot get the arrow keys to repeat.
In my .login are the lines:
	setkeys nosunview
	setkeys noarrow
but commenting them out seems to disable the keypad functions altogether,
as would be expected.  I cannot manage to determine how to get the arrow
keys to repeat, and I would appreciate any suggestions.  We are running
on Sun 3/50s.
