Readme

Holding two keys at once is hard with one hand or a weak grip. Tap Shift, Ctrl, or Alt on its own and it stays held, with a notice so you know. Tap it again to release it. Lock one, two, or all three to build combinations like Ctrl and Shift.

Holding a lock key while you press another key works as usual: the key is released when you let go.

Needs Rebind 3.5.0 or newer on Windows, macOS, or Linux. No extra permissions.

Settings

First / Second / Third lock key: defaults Left Shift, Left Ctrl, Left Alt. Any key can be a lock key. Restart the package after changing them.

Limits

The "locked" and "released" notices appear in Rebind. To see them on the desktop, turn on Desktop notifications in Rebind's settings; two notices within a second show only the first there. Linux shows them only inside Rebind.
On macOS, whether letters you type pick up a locked Shift is unverified.
Live use remains unverified on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Stop

Stopping the package releases every locked key. Stop it from the editor toolbar, or press Left Ctrl + Left Alt + K to stop all scripts.
