I am reading the keyboard.tm documentation and I am still at a loss
when doing some operation, The reason is probably is that some
vocabulary is introduced without explanation: macro, function,
quote...

Worse some is incorrect:
ESC-i-s does not introduce a symbol

As an example, I try to reproduce a boxed key by typing an appropriate
key sequence. So I type esc-i-e-k-e-y-|-a to get a boxed a. But the a is
not treated as a literal and I get:

<apply|key|a>

which is pasted BTW as:

<apply|key\|a>

I tried many variation with no luck. I think that such a terse
documentation is a major impediment to master TeXmacs. And the
frustration is proportional to the expectations. :)

Most people don't type their own logfiles; but, what do I care?
