Finder keyboard short-cuts
Hi, For the Finder windows, Command W works for the red close button Command M works for the yellow button Is there a keyboard short-cut for the green button?

Hi Brian, There isn't a shortcut for Maximise as there is no Maximise function in Mac OS--never has been. You can create a shortcut for Zoom by using the Keyboard Shortcuts pane of the Keyboard System Preferences. Add a new Shortcut, set it for all applications, type Zoom into the Menu Title field, and pick a key combination. I think you have to quit an restart any open applications, but that may have been fixed.

Nice tip, Ronni. I have also set up and will start using the Zoom shortcut.
