- tumult 17y agoAh lame, I haven't updated to Snow Leopard yet so I didn't know.
- lsd5you 17y agoGeez, os x is completely riddled with tricks you 'have to know', usually achieved by some obscure key combination. Which UI book did they get this out of ? ...

Joking aside, most OS X keyboard shortcuts actually follow a very rational scheme (which is mentioned in the Apple HIG, IIRC). If Cmd+X performs an action X, both Cmd+Shift+X and Cmd+Opt+X will perform similar versions of X, so you don't have trouble remembering "special" shortcuts. Example: Cmd+Q quits an application, Cmd+Shift+Q logs you out and Cmd+Opt+Shift+Q logs you out without confirmation. Another example: Cmd+Opt+Esc brings up the Force Quit dialog. Cmd+Shift+Opt+Esc force quits the current application without confirmation. I don't think this is an OS X specific thing. I suspect Windows, KDE and GNOME all follow a similar HIG. (No, none of those shortcuts are good for your RSI.)
