Thanks! Armed with this new tantalizing clue, I have just discovered at the following link a huge treasure chest of useful key bindings, of which your two were just the tip of a giant iceberg. :jumping: http://www.hcs.harvard.edu/~jrus/site/system-bindings.html Default Mac OS X System Key Bindings
No worries. And on that note, another helpful key binding when stuck with a laptop keyboard (which I usually am) is Fn-Delete, which is forward delete. There's a couple of bindings on that page (at least, notably, backtab) which may also be available through use of the function key, though I haven't tested them.
As a point of interest, it seems that the Fn key doesn't behave like the standard modifier keys, Cmd, Option and Ctrl. For example, forward delete doesn't appear as Fn-Delete on that list you linked to, but has its own glyph; whereas, the other modifier keys all appear explicitly. Anyone know if this behaviour is global for the Fn key, or whether it is special for delete? I'm just curious :)
PS Not sure if I explained myself very well there!
