Some people prefer to use a keyboard to execute commands rather than a mouse. Since I prefer a mouse I sometimes forget that many people would rather use their keyboards.
Recently, reader Andy King reminded me that I have been quite remiss in not updating information about keyboard commands that work with OS X. He is so right.
I don't even have a viable excuse so I won't offer one. I will, however, offer the following list of keyboard commands that work with OS X for the benefit of everyone who prefers this option when using their Macs.
I gleaned this list from a number of Internet sources, Mac OS X's built-in Help screens, my friends, and dumb luck -- not necessarily in that order.
The first table of information demonstrates the symbols (in a size larger than the head of a pin) that are frequently used to represent specific keys on the Mac keyboards.
