Send-on-type keys each character as it is typed, which only the WinKeyer
and Flex CWX can do -- so the checkbox is shown for those two alone. The
stored preference, however, survives a change of engine: an operator who
had used it on a WinKeyer and moved to CI-V carried an invisible switch
that was still on.
The consequences fit the report exactly. Nothing keyed while typing,
because wkSendRaw falls through to the WinKeyer that is not there; and
Enter sent nothing either, because sendText believes the text has already
gone out. Macros take another path and kept working.
The panel now derives the flag from the engine rather than trusting the
stored value.
