+(** Latex to unicode bindings.
+    See also the documentation in doc/sphinx/practical-tools/coqide.rst.
+
+    Text description of the unicode bindings, in a file with one item per line,
+    each item consists of:
+    - a leading backslahs
+    - a ascii word next to it
+    - a unicode word (or possibly a full sentence in-between doube-quotes,
+     the sentence may include spaces and \n tokens),
+    - optionally, an integer indicating the "priority" (lower is higher priority),
+      technically the length of the prefix that suffices to obtain this word.
+      Ex. if "\lambda" has priority 3, then "\lam" always decodes as "\lambda".
+
+      \pi π
+      \lambda λ 3
+      \lambdas λs 4
+      \lake Ο 2
+      \lemma "Lemma foo : x. Proof. Qed." 1  ---currently not supported by the parser
+
+    - In case of equality between two candidates (same ascii word, or same
+      priorities for two words with similar prefix), the first binding is considered.
+
+    - Note that if a same token is bound in several bindings file,
+      the one with the lowest priority number will be considered.
+      In case of same priority, the binding from the first file loaded
+      is considered.
