The cursor keys stopped working in 5x5 once binding inheritance was introduced in 0.6.0 (see #1343). Making them `universal` keys here fixes the issue. This won't be the final form of this change, but this fixes this example so that it works with 0.6.0 (so anyone cloning down the code and running with an installed 0.6.0 will get the full effect). Once the final work resulting from #1343 takes place this will need a final update (and should be a good test example for the changes).

About
Textual adds interactivity to Rich with a Python API inspired by modern web development.
On modern terminal software (installed by default on most systems), Textual apps can use 16.7 million colors with mouse support and smooth flicker-free animation. A powerful layout engine and re-usable components makes it possible to build apps that rival the desktop and web experience.
Compatibility
Textual runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows. Textual requires Python 3.7 or above.
Installing
Install Textual via pip:
pip install "textual[dev]"
The addition of [dev] installs Textual development tools. See the docs if you need help getting started.
Demo
Run the following command to see a little of what Textual can do:
python -m textual
