elisp: Keymap Type

 
 2.4.10 Keymap Type
 ------------------
 
 A “keymap” maps keys typed by the user to commands.  This mapping
 controls how the user’s command input is executed.  A keymap is actually
 a list whose CAR is the symbol ‘keymap’.

 prefix keys, local as well as global keymaps, and changing key bindings.
