 * Brackets `{` and `[` can be escaped by doubling - e.g. `foo[[bar` translates to `foo[bar`.
 * A previously pressed key can be released per `{/descriptor}`.
 * Keeping the key pressed can be written as `{descriptor>}`.
 * When keeping the key pressed you can choose how long the key is pressed `{descriptor>3}`.
 * You can then release the key per `{descriptor>3/}` or keep it pressed and continue with the next key.
