Alt key gets "stuck"

[ekolis]

Whenever I alt-tab out of wesnoth and alt-tab back in, the alt key gets "stuck", as if I was holding it down, and I have to press alt by itself to undo that. Makes issuing commands difficult! Playing Wesnoth 1.84 on Windows 7.

Reminds me of StickyKeys. It seems you're not alone:

"When i use the alt key 'alt tab' for example. When i come back to wesnoth, my wesnoth thinks that the alt key is still held down."

"When I alt tab out of wesnoth, and then come back the alt key is stuck on inside wesnoth."

Maybe Gambit found a fix?

Binding the command key to alt+: was my only fix.
I'm on Ubuntu now though, and I can confirm this is a windows only thing.

How do you bind a key? And what's the "command key"? That sounds like a Mac key...
