[PD] key and keyup question

[Lorenzo]

Dear Simon,

Thanks for your explanation.
Indeed the objects are simply behaving as if one were typing (say in a 
text editor, console etc.). Right now I'm on Windows and the behaviour 
is exactly the same as the Ubuntu machine.
In fact it looked so trivial I had overlooked it (I admit I was a little 
biased by previous experience with the homonym objects in MAX).

I guess a similar scenario (many possible keys together) is games where 
the user may be pressing more keys at once (say a 'fire' key kept down 
while 'moving' keys etc.).

Kind regards,
Lorenzo.
