The binding that inserts a character on a text window is bound to the Text widget class binding tag (Text in this case), not the window binding tag (.t), see

bindtags .t

bind Text <KeyPress>

However

event generate .t ...

apparently only sends the event to the window binding tag (.t) so the bindings to the Text tag are not fired. I'm not sure how you might sent an event to other window binding tags.

You might use the tk::TextInsert command to get the character inserted.

Ah, are you sure about that. At least on Linux that is not what I see:

There is no <KeyPress> event. There is a <Key> event.

From man 3tk bind:

EVENT TYPES
The type field may be any of the standard X event types, with a few ex‐
tra abbreviations. The type field will also accept a couple non-stan‐
dard X event types that were added to better support the Macintosh and
Windows platforms. Below is a list of all the valid types; where two
names appear together, they are synonyms.

Activate Destroy Map
ButtonPress, Button Enter MapRequest
ButtonRelease Expose Motion
Circulate FocusIn MouseWheel
CirculateRequest FocusOut Property
Colormap Gravity Reparent
Configure KeyPress, Key ResizeRequest
ConfigureRequest KeyRelease Unmap
Create Leave Visibility
Deactivate
