Hello Mike, Cmd-t does various things in various applications, but it is Never the way to get the date. You must have hit Option by mistake if it seemed to work once. It's easily done since they're next to each other.
Try some keyboard practice by pressing VO-k for Keyboard Help. You get out of it by pressing Escape. In Keyboard Help, if you press a VO command, you'll hear what it does. This does not work for Keyboard Commander, however. On the other hand, Keyboard Help does work for the gestures in Trackpad Commander, as long as Trackpad Commander is active when you start Keyboard Help.
