I use the below ProntoScript throughout my configuration file per adding that "Press & Hold" functionality to a given button. A normal button press will invoke one function. An extended button press will invoke another. Have never experienced any issues. Works great!

var counter = 0;
onHold = function()
{ counter++;
if (counter==1) { doAnother(); }
}
onHoldInterval = 1000; onRelease = function()
{ if (counter==0) {doOneThing(); }
}


Some examples per my use of "Press & Hold" shown below.
