Repeating macro.

[Plyply99]

Greetings all,
Just learning linux for couple weeks now and found this amazing program. I'm using it to make macros for my keyboard and mouse.
Question I have, is there a way to make a macro repeat itself with a toggle key?
Example: Press key "A"
Macro runs repeatedly
Press key "A" again
Macro stops.

In Autohotkey I would use the Toggle command, but not sure how to do it in Linux.

hey, sorry for taking my time to answer.

I think as of now this is actually not possible. I moved this into a new issue: #378

Thank you!

You could do something like this (which will toggle a single key not a macro):

if_eq($flag, 0, set(flag, 1), set(flag, 0)).
if_eq($flag, 1, key_down(KEY_A), key_up(KEY_A))

This should be added as a macro to toggle a key which will make it easier.

toggle(KEY_A)

Thanks for the suggestion. Here is a pull request that adds toggle, if you want to try it before I merge it: #427
