On/Off Key Switches?

[abcjme]

Is there a way to make certain keys act like switches? Very much like CapsLock, except that the keys sensitive to the switching could be specified.

For example:
If I press "z" once (with no holding involved), then pressing "a" will output "1" and pressing "b" will output "2".
However, if I press "z" again (with no holding involved), then "a" will simply output "a", and "b" will simply output "b".

Code: Select all

...
toggle := false
::z
toggle := ! toggle
return

::a
if(toggle)
    Send, 1
else
    Send, a
return

you'll need to figure out if you want to send A or a is caps or shift is down...

That didn't quite work, but I did get it to work with this:

Code: Select all

z::
toggle := ! toggle
return

a::
if(toggle)
send b
else
send c

odd that you don't need toggle to be defined and initialized... cool
