(This requires to reset the remembered key whenever a different key is pressed.) If you want this behavior globally and not just in your application or widget, you can do something like XKeyboardControl control; control.auto_repeat_mode = 0; gdk_error_trap_push (); XChangeKeyboardControl (GDK_DISPLAY (), KBAutoRepeatMode, &control); gdk_error_trap_pop (); That will suppress repeated key press events entirely.
