Advanced Mac keyboard shortcuts for power users

By Brendon Chase

Recently, CNET.com.au wrote a guide for basic Mac keyboard shortcuts which showed how you can navigate around the Mac OS X Leopard operating system. If you've mastered the elementary skills, it's time to learn some more advanced shortcuts to help increase productivity.


The basics of all keyboard shortcuts
While we covered the basics of keyboard shortcuts in our last article, it's useful to include it again for reference as it forms the basis for all of the shortcuts we'll be showing in this article.

Name Symbol Abbreviation
Command cmd
Control ctrl
Shift shft
Option opt
Function   F fn5
Escape esc


Remember, you can almost always find the correct keyboard shortcut for your favourite application by simply using the mouse and click on the file menu. There you will see the corresponding shortcut next to the mouse click. See screenshot below.
