(Special Properties): local-map and keymap properties apply based on their stickiness.

@item keymap
@cindex keymap of character
@kindex keymap @r{(text property)}
The @code{keymap} property specifies an additional keymap for
commands.  The property's value for the character after point, if
non-@code{nil}, is used for key lookup before the buffer's local map.
(For mouse clicks, the @code{keymap} property of the character clicked
on is the one used.)  If the property value is a symbol, the symbol's
function definition is used as the keymap.  @xref{Active Keymaps}.

@item local-map
@kindex local-map @r{(text property)}
This property specifies a keymap to use @emph{instead of} the buffer's
local map.  If the property value is a symbol, the symbol's function
definition is used as the keymap.  For most purposes (perhaps all
purposes), the @code{keymap} is superior.

@item syntax-table
The @code{syntax-table} property overrides what the syntax table says
about this particular character.  @xref{Syntax Properties}.

@item keymap
@cindex keymap of character
@kindex keymap @r{(text property)}
The @code{keymap} property specifies an additional keymap for
commands.  The property's value for the character before point applies
if it is non-@code{nil} and rear-sticky, and the property's value for
the character after point applies if it is non-@code{nil} and
front-sticky.  When the value applies, it is used for key lookup
before the buffer's local map.  (For mouse clicks, the position of the
click is used instead of the position of point.)  If the property
value is a symbol, the symbol's function definition is used as the
keymap.  @xref{Active Keymaps}.

@item local-map
@kindex local-map @r{(text property)}
This property works like @code{keymap} except that it specifies a
keymap to use @emph{instead of} the buffer's local map.  For most
purposes (perhaps all purposes), the @code{keymap} is superior.

@item syntax-table
The @code{syntax-table} property overrides what the syntax table says
about this particular character.  @xref{Syntax Properties}.
