Have you tried the Multitap plugin - specifically Single Key mode?

and use eventghost to count visitors. For exsample keyboard 1 then 2 counts as one next 1 then 2 count as 2 then3...4...5
but 2 then 1 counts backwards.

Yes, now I finally understand.
In this case, we do not need a new feature.
Similar things you can do using EventGhost for many years.
This can be solved in different ways.
Here you see one of them (you may need to add the Webserver plugin to your configuration):

Here's a copy of that part of the tree (you can do copy / paste to tree):
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<EventGhost Version="1640">
<Folder Name="Counter - demo" Expanded="True">
<Macro Name="Webserver: Increment persistent value: visitorCounter" Expanded="True">
<Event Name="Main.VisitorPlus" />
<Action>
Webserver.GetPersistentValue(u'visitorCounter')
</Action>
<Action>
EventGhost.PythonCommand(u'eg.result=str(int(eg.result)+1) if eg.result is not None else "1"')
</Action>
<Action>
Webserver.SetPersistentValue(u'visitorCounter', u'{eg.result}')
</Action>
<Action>
Webserver.GetPersistentValue(u'visitorCounter')
</Action>
<Action>
EventGhost.ShowOSD(u'{eg.result}', u'0;-48;0;0;0;700;0;0;0;0;3;2;1;66;Comic Sans MS', (255, 0, 0), (0, 0, 0), 1, (5, 5), 0, 0.0, True)
</Action>
</Macro>
<Macro Name="Webserver: Decrement persistent value: visitorCounter" Expanded="True">
<Event Name="Main.VisitorMinus" />
<Action>
Webserver.GetPersistentValue(u'visitorCounter')
</Action>
<Action>
EventGhost.PythonCommand(u'eg.result=str(int(eg.result)-1) if eg.result is not None else "0"')
</Action>
<Action>
Webserver.SetPersistentValue(u'visitorCounter', u'{eg.result}')
</Action>
<Action>
Webserver.GetPersistentValue(u'visitorCounter')
</Action>
<Action>
EventGhost.ShowOSD(u'{eg.result}', u'0;-48;0;0;0;700;0;0;0;0;3;2;1;66;Comic Sans MS', (255, 0, 0), (0, 0, 0), 1, (5, 5), 0, 0.0, True)

I can't use version 1640. Maybe you have another solution ?

You can find several solutions. For example:
1) You can try to use the latest version of the Webserver plugin in your program version.
2) You can use global variables instead of persistent variables of Webserver plugin

I have a lack of information from you. I do not know your situation and I do not know how you can to control light using WinLIRC.
However, I understand that you need an event when the first visitor comes into the room and an event when the last visitor leaves.
So you can do such as the following:
1) Use
Python Script actions instead of
Python Command actions

Code for incrementation:
Code: Select all
eg.globals.visitorCounter = 1 if not "visitorCounter" in eg.globals.__dict__ else eg.globals.visitorCounter + 1
if eg.globals.visitorCounter == 1:
eg.TriggerEvent("Turn.On", prefix = "Light")
Code for decrementation:
Code: Select all
eg.globals.visitorCounter = 0 if not "visitorCounter" in eg.globals.__dict__ else eg.globals.visitorCounter - 1
if eg.globals.visitorCounter == 0:
eg.TriggerEvent("Turn.Off", prefix = "Light")
2) Then you get the necessary events:

It WORKS.
I tried it and then I used the copy / paste.
And BTW - next time please include FULL error message.
According to this piece, I can not say exactly where you made a mistake.
But it is certain that it is a problem indentation.
Find information about the Python indentation on the Internet !
One more note:
I have a feeling that you are behaving as when this is a paid support.
I see very little effort on your part (including writing posts here).
You're the one who wants to solve something and it seems that you spend less of your time than I do.
