Is there such a thing as a preamble in texmacs? I remember it in latex, but I don't see anything similar at my documents. Can you please tell me exactly how should I proceed?

Document->Part->Create preamble, and next,
Document->Part->Show preamble/Show all parts.

Annoying thing: this option only shows at files without styles.

No no no : if you choose the style "book", then a new
menu "Part" appears directly at level 0 in the menubar.


In my case it is a book, so I will need to use the usual definitions, I just need to add new ones. How can it be done?

With the preamble, it should work.

Otherwise, you can develop your own style file,
a simple introduction about that is given at:
http://www.ags.uni-sb.de/~henri/texmacs/aTeXmacsTutorial.pdf


BTW, I've convinced myself that I will need a little more advanced stuff. Like for example creating an environment that would be the regular example, but inside of a big retangle, or an specific environment for exercises sections. So I am looking for any kind of tutorial and/or documentation about how to do this kind of thing.

The tutorial above should kickstart you efficiently ;-).

For the rest, as soon as you understand that
in the TeXmacs stylesheet language, a macro
is an s-expression (and as soon as you have
some practice of lisp/functional languages),
things become easy.

Once you are there, the reference of the
markup primitives and the reference of the
stylesheet language in the official TeXmacs
documentation is the only other thing you
need.
