but VCC doesn't have a very handy debugger :( also VCC sucks with the
artifact colors emulation.

If you're not using vhds in mess or vcc, just opt for regular rsdos rom and the repeats should dissappear. I don't see where it's a problem in VCC, it takes about a second holding down a key before it starts to repeat and that's with everything overclocked. I haven't had any problem with the key repeat.
