The $keyrpt identifier is filled during an on keydown, or an on keyup event inside of a custom @window, it returns $true if the key is held down, $false otherwise..

Synopsis

$keyrpt

Parameters

None

Example

Create an alias that launches a custom, picture window which listens for key presses and displays the key value pressed, the key character pressed, and if it is repeating:

alias keyDownTest {
  window -p $+ $iif($window(@myWindow),ra) @myWindow 550 300 250 105
}
ON *:KEYDOWN:@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)
  drawtext @myWindow 1 3 47 @myWindow Repeating: $keyrpt
}

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

/keyDownTest

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

This screenshot shows an example of the ON KEYDOWN event custom example.

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 v5.5
Added on: 08 Jan 1999
Note: Unless otherwise stated, this was the date of original functionality.
