Has AutoIt changed event polling design?

[ibon]

This simple script substitutes IJKL keys for arrow keys.

When you click a [J] key with a [Ctrl] key,

it's same as pressing a [Left Arrow] key.

And the [J][K][L] configuration for arrow keys continue

until the [Ctrl] key is pressed again.

It had worked until v3.2.3.6-beta.

I've included a compiled .exe file with v.3.2.3.6-beta for you.
