In emacs lisp, characters are integers.
So a key that correspond to a character will be represented by this
character (ie. the code of this character).
But other keys, or key chords will be represented by bigger integers,
that are not the code of any character. You can find them with kbd or
edmacro-parse-keys.
(kbd "C-M-a") --> [134217729]
