I'm sure it's very Interesting and if I need a keyboard interface I will
check it out

As you're asking
I can not see an immediate application for counting Venusian fingers
(no please don't suggest one)

OR

It was a disguised attempt to start a thread on the temperature V
resistance
coefficient of Venusian fingers in an app I'm working on at the moment.

Choose the answer you prefer.

As to the snap comment I'm sure you can work this out.

I noticed you wrote "to debounce (i.e. filter)" just in case I or any
other
reader does not understand. No objection, I do it myself as it's going
to be read
by many others, some of whom may appreciate the extra clarification,
because
it's a public forum. Compare this to the discussion on Venusian bird
recipes.
Well I try to ensure that I'm writing to the majority or I go to private
email
asap
If the threads were not so cryptic (i.e. more explanations) then maybe
not so
many (more than one, but less than all) would mind, and remember the
content(what
it was about) not the planet(big, spherical)

I think that anyone posting anything on the piclist is doing so to
address that
audience, so presumably the question's relevant? The answer may not be,
so
private replies could be appropriate
