1324<p>Due the the large number of modifier combinations, a defined key mapping
1325will match if at <em>at least</em> the specified identifiers are being set, and
1326no other key mappings with those and more bits are being defined. That
1327means that defining a key map for <code>a</code> will automatically provide
1328definitions for <code>Meta-a</code>, <code>Shift-a</code> and so on, unless some of those are defined
1329mappings themselves.</p>

1332<p>Unfortunately, this will override built-in key mappings. For example
1333if you overwrite the <code>Insert</code> key you will disable rxvt's
1334<code>Shift-Insert</code> mapping. To re-enable that, you can poke ``holes'' into the
1335user-defined keymap using the <code>builtin:</code> replacement:</p>
