gollark: ```lualocal keys_down = {}local function keyboard_shortcuts() while true do local ev = {coroutine.yield()} if ev[1] == "key" then keys_down[ev[2]] = true if keys_down[keys.leftCtrl] then -- do whatever with new key event end elseif ev[1] == "key_up" then keys_down[ev[2]] = false end endend```
