This shows how much I still have to learn, even after more than a decade of
using Myth. I didn't know that's what the repeat parameter really meant.

In Myth there isn't anywhere that I really need keys to repeat. Sometimes
it's handy in scrolling down lists of recordings, but 99% of the time, I'd
just as soon that nothing ever repeats. So now I have a couple of things to
try, so thanks to you guys who have been helping. I'll let the list know
how it works out, in case anyone finds this thread in a search.
