Reading more than one response

[Vaaal]

No, it doesn't work. 
If I do exactly what you described, and plus I have changed the MaxCount to 
1 instead of the 2 that I have previously, for the first Input Mask. I have 
no response neither when I release 2 nor when I press 4. 
If I set in the {-2} input mask the EndAction (terminate), it will 
terminate when I release 2, so I assume that the response 4 is completely 
ignored, and only the -2 is read. 

Anyway I have read around that with multiple input masks e-prime stores 
only the last value, and I think this could be a problem for my purpose.. 
Now, the fact is that I don't really need to put that {-2}. But I *have* to 
record when 2 is released. Is I don't put {-2} in my "allowable response" I 
won't have the problem described in this topic (if the subject press again 
2 or any other keys, it will just ignore it, and I am fine with this), but 
THEN I won't be able to read that value. This is true at least whit the 
inline function that I use. If you know any way to read a response also if 
it is not in allowable response, this may solve the problem.
