Send Key Count 0 not to send any keys

[RandomClown]

In the Send function, if you specify a count in a key as 0, the count is treated as 1.

Example:

send('{x 2} ')
send('{y 1} ')
send('{z 0} ')

Output:

xx y z 

Makes it more cumbersome to substitute the value with a variable, since the variable is likely to be 0

It clearly states in the Help file that:

The key will be send at least once even if the count is zero

I suggest that you do some errorchecking on the variables before creating the string to send.

Changed this from a bug report to a feature request. Although the current behavior is documented, the OP makes a reasonable case for this behavior to be changed.

Edit: Fixed the typo - now reads "will be sent"

send('{x 2} ')
send('{y 1} ')
send('{z 0} ')
