Keyboard Tips

1. The Delete key works like Backspace if you are from other platforms. To delete on the other direction, press Fn + Delete
2. The Backspace will feel slow by default. This can be changed in Keyboard Preferences by making “Key Repeat” fast & “Delay Until Repeat” short. Ref: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=508385
3. If you are missing Home & End keys, it is Command+ Left Arrow & Command + Right Arrow
4. If you are missing Page Up & Down keys, it is Command+ Up Arrow & Command + Down Arrow
