;sleep 12 ;;I need this because I put a 10ms delay before the key UP events in iCue. I had to do THAT because otherwise it would go too fast for AHK to even notice. Without this delay, those up events will happen while the function is running, which can lead to modifier keys that are virtually stuck DOWN, which is super bad and annoying.
sendinput, {blind}{SC0E9} ;scan code of an unassigned key. Do I NEED this?
;hmmm, this will force a sending of RCTRL UP because this thing itself does NOT have any modifier keys assigned to it. which means if we use BLIND instead, then that should not happen, right? hmmm.
;And then it sends rCTRL DOWN just after, because it's trying not to mess stuff up, oh i see what's going on there, okay....
