I've had this problem before with [hid], apparently it's a hardware issue called 'debouncing', which is often ignored because it is often irrelevant (pushed is pushed, for game controllers, rather than a button-on/button-off signal used for most music systems).
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.
[change] seems to be the more appropriate solution here...

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:
[hid] 0.7, written by Hans-Christoph Steiner hans@eds.org mailto:hans@eds.org compiled on Apr 15 2012 at 08:12:47 [hid] opened device 4 (/dev/input/event4): AT Translated Set 2 keyboard print: key key_j 1 print: key key_l 1 print: key key_j 1 print: key key_l 1 print: key key_j 0 print: key key_j 0 print: key key_l 0 print: key key_l 0
So I would need to store the value of each key individually and check each one with [change]. 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?
Surely this is a bug with [hid] though?
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.
