Usually -> $TEXMACS_HOME_PATH/progs/my-init-buffer.scm
see http://www.texmacs.org/tmweb/manual/webman-scheme.en.html for
details. On Unix systems the path $TEXMACS_HOME_PATH likely equals
~/.TeXmacs.

Yes, indeed. This is just the place to define your personal key
shortcuts and the like. Below is another example to insert equations and
references. Note that you can distinguish in which mode you want the
shortcuts to be active by (:mode in-text?) or (:mode in-math?).


(kbd-map
        (:mode in-text?)
        ("e q u ."    (begin (insert "Eq. (" )
                              (make 'reference)
                              (insert "equ:")))
        
        ("r e f ."    (begin (make 'cite)
                              (insert "bib:")))
        
        ("e q ."    (make-equation*))
        
        ("e q n ."  (make-equation))
        
)

Each time you create a new buffer, the file
$TEXMACS_HOME_PATH/progs/my-init-buffer.scm is executed, however, there
is no "backward" dependency on that file in your creations, if you mean
that.
