If you do, then you probably didn't click the link to discuss it here.

Sorry, I'll get my coat, jump in my racecar and leave.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Nope.
As sure as my name's Mxyzptlk (no relation to that Mxyztplk feller on Earth 2).

Is a catapult for throwing moggies at the enemy?

You're bordering on a Exo-Leslie[^], my friend. Don't have a cow of this - unless you really want to.

Maybe the purrfect solution for Tashirojima island.
Just to get them off of there. No cats were harmed during the typing of this message.
And yes, I had to look up what a moggy was/is.

are you trying to upset the cat holics again?
waste of good cats throwing them away like that!
what if your best such like addict friend comes around and needs a quick fix? (it's not as if they're illegal.)
after many otherwise intelligent sounding suggestions that achieved nothing the nice folks at Technet said the only solution was to low level format my hard disk then reinstall my signature. Sadly, this still didn't fix the issue!

It was so popular that those in the back had to crane their necks to see!
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

I'm sure I would have made the cut.

My Google-fu is failing me. The problem (I think) is easy to describe, but not to Google, apparently.
Does anyone know of a really simple tool that can simulate a key being held down...and--this is important in this context--can easily be toggled on and off?
My reason for asking: I have a game that often requires me to walk in what is essentially a straight line in some direction for quite some distance, and I have to press and hold down the 'walk' button ("W" in this case; the game's using the standard "WASD" arrangement) for minutes at a time. This often gets tedious, and so every once in a while I take a small but heavy object and try to balance it carefully on the key that needs to be held down...then while my character is moving on his own, I can do something else on another computer I have sitting next to me for a moment or two.
The problem is the "carefully balancing the object on the key" part. So I'm looking for a software solution. Ideally a one-key toggle, as in, "when I press this key (or key combination), simulate holding down this other button"...then press it again to "release" the button.
Of course I don't want something that needs me to alt-tab out of the game and back.
This is totally a first-world problem...but a solution would help remove one of the more tedious elements of this game. After all, I play to take some drudgery out of my life, not add to it...

I have just tested and verified this method. Simple but effective.
(Also may have broke CP)

That's...not a bad idea. I'll have to give it a shot. As long as it doesn't take me a minute every time I need to put it in place, I'm happy.

I expected you to come up with a 3d printed widget that could slide a poker across the keyboard with a vertically adjustment on the legs and the poker.

That'd need servo motors, controllers, a Pi, and a IoT interface to an iPhone app ...
Some might call that a touch of overkill.

 I did not get that far, I'm too old school as my first thought was a wooden widget using adjustment by screw fittings - you know manual adjustment.
However your improved widget should raise thousands if put up on one of the fund me sites.
