you can also do it with a while loop...

Code: Select all

#MaxThreadsPerHotkey 2
Backspace::
Toggle := !Toggle
while Toggle
  send s
return

Hi, it doesn’t work. It just sends a lot of S keys. I would like it to be a key down, and upon pressing backspace again, key up.

Code: Select all

Backspace::Send, % "{s " . ((Toggle := !Toggle) ? "down}" : "up}")
