Description
Macro to extract the repeat count from the message field of the event structure. The repeat count is the number of times that the key repeated before there was another keyboard event to be place in the queue, and allows the event handling code to avoid keyboard buffer overflow conditions when a single key is held down by the user. If you are processing a key repeat code, you will probably want to check this field to see how many key repeats you should process for this message.
