Where can I find the shortcut keys of all the applications?

How can I configure my Windows and OSX environments so that I don't get confused about modifier keys when I switch back-and-forth?

• I've just bought my first Mac in more than a decade. One of the tricky parts of the transition has been adjusting to the Mac's different shortcut keys. I'm going to continue to use PCs at work for the foreseeable future, so I'm going to have to find a way to allow both sets of shortcut keys to coexist in my brain. Here's what I've done so far: http://lifehacker.com/225873/mac-switchers-tip--remap-the-home-and-end-keys) http://batsov.com/articles/2012/12/06/emacs-tip-number-7-remap-return-to-control-in-osx/ http://robinadr.com/2012/09/windows-keyboard-mac-os http://emacsformacosx.com/tips However, there are still some outstanding challenges: In OSX the Command key does most of what the Control key does on Windows. For example, on OSX I use Command-V to paste, while on Windows it's Ctrl-V. However, there is still a Control key on Macs. To complicate things further, I'm a heavy Emacs user, and in Emacs the Control key behaves the same regardless of platform. Control plus the left or right arrow keys moves the cursor by a word at a time in Windows, but switches desktops in OSX. I've considered swapping the Command and Control keys on my Mac, but then I'd never be able to use anyone else's. So I may try to make the change just within Emacs. But I would love to get further advice; perhaps there's even an out-of-the-box option like http://batsov.com/articles/2012/12/06/emacs-tip-number-7-remap-return-to-control-in-osx/.

• Answer:

  I strongly recommend getting KeyRemap4macBook or keyboard maestro so you can make the mac do your bidding. However you can disable the control-arrow for switching desktops without installing anything, it is in System Preferences.
