Macroing program with a twist?

[Rappa]

does anyone know of any macroing programs that actually record how long each key is held and released? say the arrow keys for instance.

if not, is it possible to just make a program that records only the arrow keys, and times how long each is held and plays it back?

if not, thanks anyway

anyone?

The only thing I can think of is to create events for the commands that represent a KeyDown and a KeyUp. As soon as you receive a KeyDown, find out if it's an arrow key and if it is, start a timer. As soon as you receive a KeyUp, verify that it's the same key and stop the timer.

I can't give you details off of the top of my head, but that's the approach I would investigate first. I don't know of a built-in way to record KeyPress times.
