Tip: You must type the command exactly as it appears in the application menu, including ellipses and any other punctuation. (An ellipsis is a special character that looks like three periods. To type an ellipsis, you can use the Character Palette. For more information, search Mac Help for "Typing special characters." It may be difficult to tell whether the command is written in the menu with a real ellipsis or with three periods, so if one does not work, try the other.)

Unless it has changed very recently, you can type the ellipsis character as opt-semicolon.


As of last month I'm finally on OS X for good. (Since this summer, when my girlfriend got a PowerBook G4 for our travels, I was switching back and forth between that and my ancient mid-90s machine, but a few days before Thanksgiving the latter finally crashed irreparably.) Just this afternoon I found David Pogue's "Missing Manual" for OS X at a local library, and I'm planning to read it cover to cover.

The PowerBook has OS 10.2 ("Jaguar"). Someone mentioned the cost to upgrade to Panther. I thought that was free. Am I mistaken?
