Thank you so much for this tutorial! This was by far the most helpful guide for what I wanted to accomplish and thanks to you I am now able to script commands that trigger with the press of a single button on my second keyboard. I'm really looking forward to using this more.

For people that don’t have access to a second keyboard or don’t have room on their desk for one, they could do the following: Partially remap a rarely used button like scroll lock or print screen, so that if pressed once it gets locked in the down state. Then any of the hot keys you mapped to the second keyboard could be mapped to the first keyboard. The outcomes of the hot key would only happen if the “switcher” button is in the down position. When finished, just press that button again to put in the up state, thus disabling the hot keys. Basically the switcher would allow you to use any other key for special hot keys
