add timer to existing code block

Code: Select all

#HotIf auto
LButton:: {
 SetKeyDelay 20, 20
 While GetKeyState(ThisHotkey, "P")
  SendEvent '{' ThisHotkey '}'

I would like to add an action so that in addition to the rapid left mouse click it will give a beep sound every 4 seconds whilst left mouse is physically held down. When left mouse is released timer will reset and begin again whenever left mouse is pressed.

Code: Select all

#Requires AutoHotkey v2.0

LButton:: {
 Static beep := SoundBeep.Bind(1500)
 SetKeyDelay 20, 20
 SetTimer(beep, 4000), beep()
 While GetKeyState(ThisHotkey, 'P')
  SendEvent '{' ThisHotkey '}'
 SetTimer beep, 0
}

Thank you so much, works well except a minor point is that the first beep comes immediately lmb is pressed whereas it's better if it first beeps after the 4 seconds
