Shift+F1: What is this?
Major applications support Shift+F1 to let you know what a particular part of the screen is about. Hit Shift+F1 and your point turns into an arrow with a question mark (presuming your application supports this feature). Then click on something you want to know about, and some contextual help will appear.

I already knew this shortcut, as well as some of the other ones listed on here. But in general, you’re maintaining a really nice archive of very useful shortcuts (one I do and don’t know). Keep at it! P.S. how’s the little one?

Thanks for the kind words, Jimmy!
You can check out updates about my family over at my main blog, http://www.zeigen.com/blog/ but in short, she’s doing great! Starting to eat solid food, and taunt us with the possibility of someday sleeping through the night.
