It's easy but not very intuitive.

1. Start TeXmacs
2. Open a new Maxima session
3. Session -> Input -> Mathematical input
4. Type an integrate symbol using the toolbar
5. Type
sin(x)d

then press Tab key twice, and finally type x
6. Click on the ) button of the toolbar, and then on the ) button.
7. Press enter.

The problem in this case is that you'll get an ugly ) at the end of the 
integration. How could we solve it? Change the 6. step:

6. Type \big then press once Tab key, press . and finally press Enter.

Now you are typing the end ) but you won't see it. Probably it's related with 
LaTeX in some dark way, but I'm a LaTeX agnostic...
