I think that another information should be added in the section of the manual
about custom shortcuts:

"A list of possible actions can be found in files from the directory
TeXmacs/progs/texmacs/keyboard/"

Otherwise, the poor user knows the syntax for defining a shortcut, but not the
actions that may be performed, and is lost, again.


By trying to make a good example I actually ran into another problem. I tried
to add in my-init-texmacs.scm a couple of shortcuts I am accustomed to:

(kbd-map ("C-home" (go-start)))
(kbd-map ("C-end" (go-end)))

but alas they don't work...

If I define "C-+" instead of "C-home" they work, so I assume C-home is
superseded by generic-kbd.scm or something... and in fact if I change the
central generic-kbd.scm file they work.


But the point about adding shortcuts in my-init-texmacs.scm should'nt be that
of changing standard shortcuts with customized shortcuts? my-init-texmacs.scm
should not therefore be the last initialization file read by TeXmacs?


I feel that keyboard customization in TeXmacs is still a bit tricky.
