Little Known Shortcuts.

I am a big fan of keyboard shortcuts. The 3 shortcuts I use the most are not known to most people, they are cut, copy and paste. Now this is not the standard CTRL-X, C, & V but better (IMHO). Here they are:

copy : CTRL-INSERT

paste: SHIFT-INSERT

cut : SHIFT-DELETE

These shortcuts work in almost every application I have come across (except a few Java applications), AND it works on both windows and Linux. Also if you switch between a qwerty and dvorak keyboard layout, the keys for the shortcuts don’t change with your layout (like C, V and X do.)
