Let's keep this on the list since its of general interest, and others
can answer these questions as well.

For that, you will need the [hid] object, which gives you raw access
to HID devices. Its for Mac OS X and GNU/Linux. But if you are

support Windows.

Yes, thank you, but if I press a Key continuously, I will receive
several bangs – and this is what I do not want.

The bang should be when I start pressing the key, and when I
finishes pressing it (let´s say during 10 seconds).

Thanks, Carlos.

[key] gives you data on key down, [keyup] on up, and [keyname]

Hi,

Is there any method to receive a "bang" ONLY when I start or
finishes pressing a key on the keyboard? (and not in-between)

In attach, the patch for better understanding.

Thanks.
