Change Speed Before Ctrl+C with Region Selected activates The Copy Command Instead of Allowing Other Commands On Region

Question

Is there a way to change the speed before the copy command executes when pressing Ctrl+C with CUA bindings set. If you press it fast enough you can execute commands on the region and the copy command is ignored. This setting is quite fast and I would prefer it to wait a bit longer if possible. Just wondering if anyone knows how to change this or where this is controlled.

Answer 1

I don't use CUA, but it's probably cua-prefix-override-inhibit-delay:

If non-nil, time in seconds to delay before overriding prefix key. If there is additional input within this time, the prefix key is used as a normal prefix key. So typing a key sequence quickly will inhibit overriding the prefix key. As a special case, if the prefix keys repeated within this time, the first prefix key is discarded, so typing a prefix key twice in quick succession will also inhibit overriding the prefix key. If the value is nil, use a shifted prefix key to inhibit the override.
