Modifier keys combined with normal keys

Hey @lukeraymonddowning

I am looking for key handler library and this one seems to be very promising 😃

Maybe it’s not supported or I am doing something wrong but this is not working (same for Shift):

whenipress("Alt", "s")
  .then(() => console.log("press alt+s"))
  .whenReleased(() => console.log("release alt+s"));

It’s only triggered once or not at all and the release hook is never triggered. I am using a Macbook Pro.

Actually @moklick further to this, ignore my previous comment.

It doesn’t work because alt modifies the S key. You can use the key code instead:

whenipress("Alt", "KeyS")
  .then(() => console.log("press alt+s"))
  .whenReleased(() => console.log("release alt+s"));

This site is super useful for this kind of stuff: https://keycode.info

Thanks! I wasn’t aware that it’s possible to pass the code as well.
