Keyboard Shortcuts

One thing that might not be immediately obvious if you’re new to this is the naming convention that’s commonly used.

• M-x means OPTION + x keys. The meta or M key is mapped to the option key on most systems today.
• C-u refers to CONTROL + u
• When there is no dash, you’re looking at a chord. The keys are then pressed in sequence.
• When you see a capital S that usually means the SHIFT key, unless someone used a capital “s” in their function shortcut.
• Oh yes and </kbd> or SPC that’s just the space bar.
