Recall last letter pressed among a certain set of letters Topic is solved

[ouboss]

Is it possible to recall which letters have been pressed last whether they were sent via keyboard or a script? Perhaps something similar to A_priorkey but just a certain subset of letters. I'm not quite sure where to begin with this one.

E.g.

I want the last pressed of either a or b. If I typed "absdkfjkj" it would produce b instead of j. Ultimately it will be used to send additional letters according to whether a or b came more recently.

probably a better way, but maybe something like this?

Code: Select all

LoggedKeys := ["A","B","Z"]
for k, v in LoggedKeys
	Hotkey, % "~"LoggedKeys[k], LogKey

LogKey:
LastLoggedKey := StrReplace(A_ThisHotkey, "~")
ToolTip % LastLoggedKey
return

Was able to build on your foundation to piece together exactly what I had envisioned to create at the start. Also had a few ah HA, eureka learning moments while doing so. Thanks for that.
