The ON KEYUP event is triggered when a key has been pressed, but subsequently released, inside of a custom @window.

This event fills the following identifiers:

$keyvalThe unicode character value of the key being released
$keycharThe actual character released
$keyrptDuring this ON KEYUP event, the $keyrpt identifier always returns $true

Synopsis

ON <level>:KEYUP:<@>:<key,...,keyN>:<commands>

Parameters

<level>The level for the event to trigger.

<@>The custom window where this event should listen. Can be @ for all windows.

<commands>The specific key, or keys to listen for. Can specify multiple keys, such as:

ON *:KEYUP:@myWindow:38,42,55,78:echo -a $keyval

Example

Create an alias that launches a custom, picture window which listens for key releases and displays the key value released, and the key character released:

alias keyUpTest {
  window -p $+ $iif($window(@myWindow),ra) @myWindow 550 300 250 83
}
ON *:KEYUP:@myWindow:*: {
  clear @myWindow
  drawtext @myWindow 1 3 3 Key value: $iif($keyval,$v1,NA)
  drawtext @myWindow 1 3 25 Key character: $iif($keychar,$v1,NA)
}

The following command can now be typed into any mIRC command prompt:

/keyUpTest

Below is an image reflecting what this example will look like:

This screenshot depicts the On Keyup event in mIRC.

Note that this makes use of a picture window, as well as the drawtext command. These types of windows and their tools can be very powerful in creating some amazing graphical layouts, as well as mIRC games.

Compatibility

Added: mIRC v5.8
