Has anyone ever heard of StickyKeys?

Has anyone ever heard of StickyKeys? I wasn't looking at my key board while trying to press enter and I needed a bunch of notes on the same pitch (naturally you would press the enter button a bunch of times kind of fast)  Well I did press a button a bunch of times fast but it was the Shift key right above Enter and a window entitled StickyKeys came up.  I read it but it didn't seem to interest me so I thought I would just ask about it instead.  If you want to see what I mean press Shift 5 times in a row some what quickly.

StickyKeys is a windows thing. Just check the Windows help.

Sorry I don't know about this StickyKeys thing.

If you just hold the enter key down, it will reproduce your notes very quickly without having to raise and lower your finger.

StickyKeys is a Windows accessibility feature, intended to assist those with some kinds of manual disability. I imagine it can be used for other purposes, as well.

When I have sticky keys, I put a sheet of sandpaper between the hammers and play the note half a dozen times.
No more sticky keys.

I use a little WD40 on my typewriter - no more sticky keys.

You can open your Control Panel and go to the Accessibility Options area. You will find details about this feature from there.
