Hi Penny, to cycle through windows in an application, use the key to
the left of the 1 key on the numbers row with tab. shift it to reverse.
To move to the ends of the earth in message lists, use vo home and
end. This is a bit different if you are using a notebook, because
home is fn-left arrow and end is fn-right arrow.
For your sorting questions, it is possible but tricky so to get
started, press command-shift-slash on the bottom right of the keyboard
to get mail help. type the word sort in the search box and press
enter, press enter on sorting messages and read the help. I hope
others can lend a hand here and I'll try it myself and post findings.

Hi there all,
I am wondering if there is a way to tab between windows in an
application. I know there is window chooser, VO + f2 twice quickly
but I want an alt-tab equivalent.
I also want to know how to get to the top of my message list in
mail, how to sort by two fields ie. first by date then by subject.
I also want to know if there is a way of doing word count with text
edit, of quickly changing the font without going command T.
I've disabled spaces on my macbook because I kept using a windows
key command that would invoke it. I think it was command shift and
the arrows... The commands for highlighting text are still a bit
alien to me.
I have also found that navigating by column view in finder is the
easiest for me. I would like to know what settings like this people
tend to use.
I suppose I am thinking of some sort of basic checklist to make the
system the most efficient.
Take Care all
From Penny
