You could do the following without a script:
Just bind "Previous Weapon" to Mouse2. Then if you once switch between blink and slash just press mouse2 to change between these 2 weapons.
know what I mean?

good idea, just one thing.
You can have more than one weapons and you could bind say mouse+ to one and mouse- to another one, meaning you just scroll your mouse. Also make sure auto_switch is on so that you can just press one and not have to click. Hehehehe

Just use
hud_fastswitch 1
bind q lastinv (or any other key you like)
that way you can switch between your current weapon and the last one you used (lastinv) with just a key.
There are some scripts at the customization forum, but most ppl think they're not much better than just doing that.
And you can also use "romano client side lastinv" (use search in the forums) to get rid of the bit of lag (lastinv command is server side).

Yeah, hes right i got the auto_sitch bit wrong. Or you could learn how to make a script which would make you have a better idea of how to make them in the future - ask for help in the custom place.

hud_fastswitch "1"
bind MOUSE1 +attack
bind MOUSE2 +lastinv
Simplest. Fastest. Best.

The issue with the script is you are forcing your usage of it to be artificially timed.. That will result in more issues then if you use the other methods mentioned above.
Scripting is inflexible and I don't know people who use it (other than for hop scripts)

| CODE |
alias +release "+attack; -attack" alias +switch "weapon_blink" alias -switch "+release; lastinv" bind MOUSE2 +switch |
Then bind z or somthing to +popupmenu and use mouse 2 as a pres and hold to use blink. Then when you let go of mouse 2 it switched back to swipe. It's the most acurate way to do that.

Scripts won't help you learn. Just do it manually and you'll get faster eventually.
Everything always wants everything so damn fast now. Technology that was suppost to make our lives easier and faster actually made people demand things even faster and easier, which crams everything into smaller timeframes. Reports that took weeks to do now takes an hour to do on a computer, which means you save time! Wrong. It means you have more time for more reports.
Just slow down. Once you learn it, it'll be better than any script that a CAL ns player could write (OH SNAP).

A blinkswipe script is pretty useless actually, doing it manually is alot easier/better/etc

With a 5 button mouse you don't need lastinv

. Romano uses ESDF for movement and bound q-w-r-t to slot1-4, if I remember correctly. Much easier than using the number keys anyway.
Lastinv has lag problems which will annoy you when you're swiping in midair after a blink. Same with leap.

My script is not useless. It's a lot easier than doing it manually too...

Althought its for the umbra, I don't even use it, depending on your computer speed your waits might last longer or end faster, simple enough change the weapon name to blink and all you have to do is use mouse 2 to blink and click mouse 1 to swipe, still kinda dodgey, didnt perfect it cause it wasn't particularly useful.

hud_fastswitch 1 and lastinv own, so does Blink/Swipe, but the real trick is to develop crazy Spiderman skills allowing you to hang on ceilings like a Skulk. Yea, you know you'd **** yourself if you saw Fades climbing up walls. (Holy @#$%! Xenomorph! Aghghgha!)

you can actually use blink to keep yourself upp in the air in a corner with lvl 3 adren. Just like how you used to be able to keep flying with JP with 100 fps in 1.04

I think sorting your rates/getting a better connection helps wonders too but fastswitch weapon is all you need really, using the lastinv though intentional is SERIOUSLY lame

as it has no weapon switch time, but with proper rates you shouldnt notice much difference if any.
