useHydra

A component that chains keystrokes. So instead of C-c C-v, C-c-v can be keyed in.

• useHydra() helps with reacting to keystrokes from the user. It can chain keystrokes.
• Keys pressed inside a set interval, gapTolerance, can be chained.
• A key pressed after the interval will start a new chain.
• Usage: const [currentKeyCombo, updateGapTolerance] = useHydra(defaultGapTolerance)
• currentKeyCombo is an array containing the current keystrokes of the user.
• updateGapTolerance, in milliseconds, is used to chain key pressed inside of an interval. Default is 1000ms.
