What happens if multipurpose modmap is resumed before another key? about keyszer HOT 6 CLOSED

As for the original xkeysnail behavior - it would wait indefinitely because it had no other choice - the only events that could "wake" it were input events from the input devices...

Actually we should just force that the right side of multipurpose modmaps have to be REAL modifiers - such that we can depress them as needed...?

define_multipurpose_modmap(
    # {Key.ENTER: [Key.ENTER, Key.RIGHT_CTRL]   # Enter2Cmd
    # {Key.CAPSLOCK: [Key.ESC, Key.RIGHT_CTRL]  # Caps2Esc
    # {Key.LEFT_META: [Key.ESC, Key.RIGHT_CTRL] # Caps2Esc - Chromebook
    {                                         # Placeholder
})

What is this section for? Do you encourage it's use or have knobs in one of your UIs to turn these on and off?

In reading the old code again I think this may have always been the case, so I may end up just closing this issue until someone comes back with actual issues using multi-modmaps.

Yes, system tray menu, Customize -> Tweaks. Although I do not think I have made Enter2Cmd available to the GUI as either no one requested it or it was requested & it seemed like an esoteric need.. who would assume holding down Enter would turn it into a Cmd key lol?

You should definitely test this when you try keyszer... should work but I haven't done much playing with the multi-maps stuff. (and it got a pretty big rewrite)
