Unknown? You can't work inside Windows at all without those shortcuts. In Emacs it's alt+Backspace, so it's not too hard to organically find in other environments by trial and error.
Whenever I switch editors, I quickly look for the following shortcuts:
* How do you delete a word forwards and backwards? (there might be a better shortcut such as Ctrl+W)
* How do you move to the word ahead and the word behind?
* How do you kill a line?
* How do you duplicate a line?
* How do you move a line up and down?
* How do you activate multiple cursors?
* How do you comment/uncomment a line/block?
* How do you expand/contract a selection?
I think that covers about 80% of the common actions, and learning them will make you instantly productive in your new editor.
