Default Repetitive keystroke

Hello,

I'm drawing a blank on this: In one cell, I want to have the repetitive
keystroke, so that it will expand when I increase the column width.

Surely there is a better way than =REPT("=",CELL("width")) (and even
that is not an exact solution)

I remember in Lotus, it was the key "\" in front of a character, but I've
tried many variations of this without success.
