Simulate Keyboard keypress Delay

[DaGeek247]

I am using the windows api feature getasynckeystate() to check the status of every key pressed; like this;

#always checking
while(True):
    #iterate through list of ascii codes
    for num in range(0,127):
        #if ascii code key is being pressed
        if win32api.GetAsyncKeyState(num):
            #do stuff

This works great, almost. The issue that comes up now is that every time i press a key, the code grabs two or three key presses.

So i tried making sure that repeated keys weren't pressed repeatedly;

#always checking
while(True):
    #iterate through list of ascii codes
    for num in range(0,127):
        #if ascii code key is being pressed
        if win32api.GetAsyncKeyState(num):
            if oldkeychar == num:
                #don't do stuff
            else:
                #do stuff

this works great, but It won't record stuff like 'look' or 'suffer' because it doesn't record repeated keys. So I try doing a delay instead;

#always checking
while(True):
    #iterate through list of ascii codes
    for num in range(0,127):
        #if ascii code key is being pressed
        if win32api.GetAsyncKeyState(num):
            if oldkeychar == num:
                if crrenttime > (time.time() - .5)
                    #do stuff because key has been repeated, but not because it was held down
                else:
                    #don't do stuff because key is pressed to soon
            else:
                #do stuff because key is not repeated
                currenttime = time.time()

this almost works, but I end recording some double keypresses, and missing others. Does anybody have any suggestions?
