When I try to follow the instructions, I get:

Processing Makefile.fpc
Error: Target "win32", package "rtl" not found
I have fpcdir=j:\Programming\fpc 3.0.2 set in my environment variables
I'd recommend reinstalling FPC in a directory without spaces. Spaces in
paths can cause trouble for fpcmake and makefiles in general. By default
FPC installs in a directory without spaces, so it's not well tested at all.

Follow the instructions in docs/INSTALL.txt to compile the package. Then add
units\i386-win32 from the snapshot directory to the unit search path of your
compiler.
Here is what I have tried to do.
First I moved everything from J:\Programming\FPC
3.0.2\units\i386-win32\graph to a temporary location so it wouldn't
find the old versions of ptcgraph and ptccrt Now when I try to compile
my program, I get unit ptcgraph not found... which is what I want because I
want to be sure not to get the old version Then I copied the entire snapshot to
into J:\Programming\FPC 3.0.2\units\i386-win32\ptcpas Now when I try to compile
my program, I still get unit ptcgraph not found.
I added J:\Programming\FPC 3.0.2\units\$fpctarget\ptcpas\* to the
directories Now I got an error that it could not find graphh.inc So I
copied all the .inc files from J:\Programming\FPC
3.0.2\units\i386-win32\graph\inc to J:\Programming\FPC
3.0.2\units\i386-win32\graph because I have no idea how else to make it find
them.
Now I can can compile successfully and run my program, but it has the same
issues.
But I notice the modified file win32kbd.inc is never used. I have even
removed it temporarily and I can still compile successfully. I did a
search for win32kbd and I find win32kbdd.inc but not win32kbd.inc
That is where I am at. I think If I could correctly apply
win32kbd.inc it may work

I think I figured out my problem, but I'm not sure how to fix it. I was
looking at the code here: https://sourceforge.net/p/ptcpas/code/714/
And I see that the change made was to win32kbd.inc, but I don't think I'm using
the updated version of it. I think my problem is that I just compiled
ptcgraph.pp and replaced ptcgraph.ppu in FPCWin\units\i386-win32\graph.... so
apparently that's not the correct way to do it. So then I tried adding the
entire folder downloaded from https://sourceforge.net/projects/ptcpas/files/
But that's a fix, that's not yet released (because it needs testing), so it's
in svn trunk only, and not in the release files. Get it from:
https://sourceforge.net/p/ptcpas/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/
Either click on "Download Snapshot", or install subversion
(TortoiseSVN) and checkout https://svn.code.sf.net/p/ptcpas/code/trunk
Into a folder at FPCWin\units\i386-win32\ptcpas then renaming the original
ptccrt.ppu and ptcgraph.ppu located in FPCWin\units\i386-win32\graph but now It
can't find ptcgraph, even though it's there under
FPCWin\units\i386-win32\ptcpas\ptcgraph so now I'm realizing that I'm just
guessing and really don't have a clue the proper way to integrate this into my
fpc compiler.
Could someone please tell me the correct way I should be doing this so that the
compiler will find the correct versions of all the files necessary?

Here is a simple sample program that has the issue for me on both my windows 10
desktop and my windows 10 laptop, both are 64bit.
https://hastebin.com/nubonozaho.pas
I started thinking about this, and did some more tests, and I think I have
narrowed down what is really happening, but not sure how to fix it.
The problem is not the ALT-tab from the graphics window, it's ALT being
pressed when the window focus changes. CTRL is also affected, but not shift.
Try this:
Go to Graph window, type some letters, see that it's working correctly, now
hold just ALT, or CTRL - switch to another window by clicking on it. Click on
console window, see letters are working correctly, now go back to graph window,
anything you press acts like ALT, or CTRL is still being pressed until you
actually enter a keystroke using ALT, or CTRL. It seems to me there is
probably some flag or variable being set that the alt or ctrl key is being
pressed, but is being interrupted by the window focus change, when focus is
brought back, the variable is still set for ALT or CTRL being down, but neither
is down anymore, but the flag cannot be cleared until a key sequence using ctrl
or alt is used. I did also notice that just hitting alt or ctrl and releasing
it in the graph window clears the condition and characters are back to normal
again.
