SECTION II: KEYBOARD MASTERY TOPIC: Applying shortcut keys

Keyboard shortcuts
Keyboard shortcuts are combinations of keys on the keyboard that when pressed
down at the same time quickly activate a specific functionality. The same
functionality can usually also be activated using the mouse by selecting the
functionality in a menu, but using the equivalent keyboard shortcut keys is
much faster. The most frequently used shortcuts are listed below. However, I
have designed a list that uses each letter of the alphabet to be used as a shortcut.
