Wow! Thanks Chris. After 20+ years of Mac use I didn't think I'd 
learn something so basic. This just shows how stuck we get into using 
the OS the way we always have.  I knew about this feature, but have 
never used it, since most applications have their own shortcuts set. 
But this is really useful for TeXShop.
