It give an instant double key, then a 'normal' delay before the autorepeat.

Nothing related to that problem I think, but I append the .login
and .cshrc at the end.

NetBSD /etc/ttys deliver with vt220, I have changed it to vt100,
because the vt100 works much better (more -s was noot useable with
vt220, vt100 work).

I will try it. But can I live with a -current kernel and a -1.4.1 userland?
As far I know -current has switched to ELF and -1.4.* is a.out.
