Multiple key firings

[RM]

Thanks: after a lot of "cussing and swearing" I came up with this:

on rawKeyDown RKD
    if the keyFiredOnce of this card = "true" then
    switch RKD
    case 65432
       put item 1 of the loc of img "LB" into LB1
       put item 2 of the loc of img "LB" into LB2
       put (LB1 + 50) into LB1
       move img "LB" to LB1, LB2
    break
    case 65430
       put item 1 of the loc of img "LB" into LB1
       put item 2 of the loc of img "LB" into LB2
       put (LB1 - 50) into LB1
       move img "LB" to LB1, LB2
       break
    default
       pass rawKeyDown
end switch
end if
set the keyFiredOnce of this card to "false"
end rawKeyDown

on rawKeyUP RKU
    set the keyFiredOnce of this card to "true"
end rawKeyUP
