Control hanged out unpredictively
Posted: 17 Jan 2022, 14:52
Hi, I'm very new to AutoHotKey, so I hope this is not a silly question.
I implemented a simple script that change the behavior of caps lock.
My intended behavior is that if caps lock is pressed in some specific windows it is reinterpreted as esc if pressed alone, as control if pressed with other keys (but not control), and have the normal behavior if pressed with control.
I implemented this script as follows:
Notice as control is sent even when esc is sent, my rationale is that an additional control pressed before the esc should not be a problem.
Well, it works great most of the time, but occasionally control simply get stuck, like if it was still pressed, and I have to press control again to unlock it. How can I solve?

*CapsLock::
Send {LControl Down}
KeyWait CapsLock
Send {LControl Up}
if (A_PriorKey = "CapsLock")
Send {Esc}
IsSpecialProcess() {
global Processes
WinGet process, ProcessName, A
return IsIn(process, Processes)
}
IsSpecialClass() {
global Classes
WinGetClass class, A
return IsIn(class, Classes)
}
IsIn(value, collection) {
for k, v in collection
if (v = value)
return 1
return 0
