[feat] Echo Doesn't Repeat for Key Repeat (e.g. Backspace Held Down) #38

Describe the problem

Could you please modify the code so that when key repeat is engaged, such as when the backspace key is held down, it keeps click-click-clicking?

If we were typing on an electric typewriter, we'd expect to hear a click-click-click repeated, but we don't. This violates user expectations and breaks the fluidity of the user experience.

Even if you just press 'j' and hold it down, you see a string of j's, but only one click. This creates a discontinuity between what the computer is doing and what you're hearing.

I'd go so far as to call it a bug.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like to hear the click sound repeated when as long as key repeat is engaged.
