Hi, i have a little request/sugestion for keyclones hostrings/keymaps:

Would it be possibe to define a seperate List of keymaps for ingoing and outgoing hotstrings?

If it would be possibel you could in your 'outgoing' keylist define combinations where diffrent keys could activate the same hotstring, and in your 'ingoing' keymap different hotstrings could activate the same key.

One example where this would be handy is formations with a leaderless setup, example:

1. Your Arrow keys are bound to walk in the corresponding direction on each toon.
2. you want to press f for the formation

Define the following keybinding:

ToonA:
Ingoing Keymap:
'LEFT' --> line.leader.toonB
'RIGHT' --> line.leader.toonC
Outgoing Keymap:
'f' --> line.leader.toonA

ToonB:
Ingoing Keymap:
'LEFT' --> line.leader.toonA
'LEFT' --> line.leader.toonC
Outgoing Keymap:
'f' --> line.leader.toonB

ToonC:
Ingoing Keymap:
'RIGHT' --> line.leader.toonA
'RIGHT' --> line.leader.toonB
Outgoing Keymap:
'f' --> line.leader.toonC

I know, i could do a quick fix by simply using:

ToonC:
Keymap:
'RIGHT' --> line.leader.toonA
'shift+RIGHT' --> line.leader.toonB
'f' --> line.leader.toonC

and so on... ..but for me a splitted ingoing and outgoing keymap would be very nice.

I'll second that request :) There's been a few times where I would of rather set up things that way, especially in formations where you want to call the same key several different ways. I was able to work around it, but I think the ingoing and outgoing keymaps would of been a cleaner approach.
