Remapping X key to Alt + Right

Question

I am trying to X key to Alt + Right but I can't seem to get it right. This is what I have so far:

z::Send {Alt Right}

If I use it in VLC it doesn't have the same effect as if I press Alt+Right manually. I suspect it has to do with not being able to have alt pressed and then press right slow enough for VLC to get it.

Any ideas? Thanks.

`{Alt Right}` is not a valid key name, every key should be enclosed in its own brackets. http://www.autohotkey.com/docs/commands/Send.htm — this, Nov 24 '13 at 22:21
Also tried with ! as Alt. Specifically if I write "z::Send {!}{Right}" what I get instead is first a "!" is written and then right key is pressed. "z::Send {!Right}" doesn't do it either — JonesR, Nov 25 '13 at 05:16

Put the alt modifier outside of brackets.

z::Send !{Right}
