from file, filtering through external command, shift left, shift right,

   Test undeleting/uninserting (Hint: ^U) (TODO: full undo)

~/.le/keymap, ~/.le/keymap-$TERM or to $(pkgdatadir)/keymap[-$TERM] and
edit as you wish.

   Tunable colors: place output of `le --dump-colors' to
~/.le/colors[-$TERM] or $(pkgdatadir)/colors[-$TERM] and edit as you wish.
