Store Variables in Variables?

Hello everyone i want to make a Keyconfig script but im stuck. Right now i have it setup that every Aktion like move forward, move left, move right etc. has its own function for configuring it like this

public void Configforward () {
		if(Input.GetButtonDown("Q")){
			forward = "Q";
			Configstufe = 0;
		}
		if(Input.GetButtonDown("W")){
			forward = "W";
			Configstufe = 0;
		}
		if(Input.GetButtonDown("E")){
			forward = "E";
			Configstufe = 0;
		}
And so on for every key on the keyboard
}

But this gets me a like 2000letters long script. so how can i store the forward in another variable so i can say in my other script set varibale aktion to forward and then it sets forward to the key. I think its possible with a arraylist but i dont have much knowlege white arraylists. Can someone please help me? And sorry for my bad english.

You mean something like Input Manager? Note: that package does everything you’re making and is being updated all the time. (Even as type this)

Hm i am not sure but i think its something like that. But the thing is i want to write it on my own to get the best understanding and also i dont want to pay money for scripts its a bit stupied i think.

And do you know if its possible with arraylists, because i think it is i just dont know how.
