 Option+Shift+K

I work a lot with text, (web) page layout, copyediting, technical writing, etc. While I was still on the PC, I had the entire (almost) list of keyboard shortcuts to symbols that are frequently used. Some examples are copyright ©, registered ® and trademark ™.

When I switched to the Mac, all these keyboard shortcuts were lost to me. While I could still access these symbols using the Show Character Palette, enabled from System Preferences » International » Input menu, it did not offer me the convenience that keyboard shortcuts do.

Some research on Google however, found me the shortcuts I needed, including other cool ones. Like the one for Apple logo on the title of this blog. I have listed other keyboard shortcuts that are useful to me, and which I hope you find useful too.
