My current idea is to set up a keybinding for "1 tab", "2 tab", etc, so that the tab will turn the number into a subscript of the previous symbol. But I don't quite know how to move in the document tree (or directly manipulate it). I read the document "Programming routines for editing documents" but still have no idea, like how can I get the tree representing the symbol before the cursor.
