[SOLVED] How to permanently set keyboard repeat rate?

I'm getting a LOT of repeated keys.

I have used

xset r rate 300 25

but that's only for the current session.

Is there a way to permanently set the repeat rate?

(I found reference to a .xinitrc file in the Debian Wiki, but I've not found it in Bunsenlabs).

The file at ~/.config/openbox/autostart is used in place of ~/.xinitrc in the BunsenLabs desktop.

There should already be an `xset` line that you can edit:

Thank you, @Head_on_a_Stick, for the prompt answer.

Is anybody working on  Wiki or other documentation for Bunsenlabs?

In a word - No.  There is discussion about it, though it was always intended for the forums to be the primary resource for answers. Wikis are time-consuming, create arguments, and are very labour-intensive to maintain.
