On: Ask HN: The most useful Mac keyboard shortcuts?

Cmd-space Type a few characters: start or switch to an app. Just hide the dock. Keeps your hands on keyboard and your eyes where you want them to be.

Control-cmd-F makes most apps full screen (or toggles back)

^k, ^y, etc...standard text widgets accept basic Emacs commands.

Cmd-Space for me is the most powerful one! It makes life so much easier, and unlike the windows key, it's all front and center on your screen and easier to read.

Four finger swipe on keyboard slides between full screen apps (or spaces)

You mean on a trackpad?

Yes, sorry, that’s what I meant.
