Mac shortcuts

There are a number of keyboard shortcuts for the mac that are either direct mirrors of the ones for Windows (or more likely,Windows have mirrored Mac),or completely new.

First place to look is at a handy table of what all the odd symbols mean and their corresponding keyboard button. You can see that here on techblog.

Here’s a selection of mac keyboard shortcuts for you:

• tab between open applications:⌘ tab
• display crosshairs to take a screenshot:⌘ shift 4
• open a new tab in safari (or other browsers):⌘ t

And here’s the complete list of mac keyboard shortcuts,found on the Apple support page. Some in here I didn’t even know about,so it’s a learning process for all of us!
