Just in case anyone isn't aware, and who gets duplicate characters input because they have some un-steadiness, and are using a Windows/10 PC (I think 7 as well) there are some options in in the "Ease of Access" settings "Filter Keys" settings => "bounce keys" that may help with your typing. These set a configurable delay that will ignore repeated keypresses for a very short period of time. The default is 0.5 of second but its configurable. You need to enable "Filter Keys" to see the "Bounce Keys" option. There is also a "slow keys" option.

I hope this helps, and I am sorry if you knew this already and it doesn't ....
I think it's always good to share neat ~> helpful features with others. Especially if it's done in the positive sense of "this is really cool" and not negative "oh, you need some help, go look here."
