You can deal with the problem in pure data by using a trigger, float and
delay of one millisecond. See the attached patch, click the message
boxes and watch your terminal for the result.

Thanks for the suggestion. The problem I have with these two
solutions is that they only work when the double triggers are in
sequence. Sometime they arrive like this:<br>

<tt>[hid] 0.7, written by Hans-Christoph Steiner <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="ecxmoz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:hans@eds.org"><hans@eds.org></a><br>

[hid] opened device 4 (/dev/input/event4): AT Translated Set 2
keyboard<br>

print: key key_j 1<br>

print: key key_j 0<br>
print: key key_j 0<br>
print: key key_l 0<br>

<br>
</tt>So I would need to store the value of each key individually and
check each one with [change].<br>
Instead of this long-winded method, I've downloaded [linuxevent]
which is working nicely so I think I'll stick with this even though
it may be deprecated?<br>
<br>
Surely this is a bug with [hid] though?<br></div></blockquote></div><div><br></div>Could be. If you think so, please file a bug report. I am happy to help anyone work thru this bug. I haven't used [hid] in a good long while tho, so I'm not up on the code or the issues, nor am I likely to have time to look at it. <div><br></div><div>.hc<br><div>
