Best keyboard shortcuts ever

I just found this and think it is awsome - infact I didn't even know this feature existed! Feel free to paste your lesser-known keyboard shortcuts for everyone to enjoy - be sure to include the application!

Adobe Bridge CS4 (Windows): Alt+Delete = Add a red 'Reject' label to the image. You can then click View->Show Reject Files (toggles on and off) to hide the rejects. If you're like me and hate deleting files - this is a great way to hide them without resorting to other metadata and filtering tricks! It also shows up as a 'Reject' star under the Ratings filter

Looking forward to learning new keyboard shortcuts - whatever makes life easier makes me happy

Here's a list of windows keyboard shortcuts.

My favourites:

ctrl-s (to save)
Alt-tab (esp in windows vista/7)
Ctrl-alt-del (to end processes)
alt-f4 (to close)
f5 (to refresth)

edit- opps! "Feel free to paste your lesser-known keyboard shortcuts for everyone to enjoy - be sure to include the application!"

Try Ctrl+Shift+Esc, it's a shortcut directly to Task Manager without having to go through that other window

Ctrl+Shift+Alt+E in PS to make a sum of all layers instead of flattening the image so that you can go back if need be. I find it very helpful.
