Thanks. Went for a different approach which I think resolves the alt keys on Windows. |

Summary
Windows terminals that don’t implement the Kitty keyboard protocol deliver Alt+key combinations as ESC followed by a character, so Textual only sees the plain key press. This PR adds a fallback path that synthesizes Kitty-style sequences in those cases, enabling Alt bindings without breaking true Kitty support added in #6207.
Fixes #6192
