Simple repeat key macro!

[yalag]

Hi, I would like a macro that allows me to hold th key 1 and have it automatically repeats the 1 key every 0.2 seconds until I release the key. Is this possible?

Thanks!

No. Programming-wise it is almost impossible to tell Windows that a key is being pressed really fast, while Windows actually knows that it is being held down. This is contradictory and thus not possible.

What do you mean? sure you can just do a loop like

while (key is still pressed)

{

fire key;

wait 0.2 seconds;

}

I just need the syntax and how to catch the up and down events
