The only keypress you can catch with mirc (without using a dll) is the F-key plus the control, alt and shift key.
An example about how to catch F-key has been given (you can read more about it using /help Function Keys) and you can use $mouse.key (/help $mouse) to know if alt is pressed.
Forget the sendkey alias, it's for something you can use to do what you want.
