There is a faster way for you to type on the Mac using keyboard shortcuts
0:06
I'm Dee Griffin-Jones from Cult of Mac, let me show you how it works
0:10
So you can use the Delete key to delete a single letter at a time, or you can hold down
0:15
the Option key, and this will delete an entire word at once with just one keystroke
0:21
Similarly, you can use the Command key to delete an entire row of text at once
0:28
Now this isn't just for deleting text. You can use the Arrow keys while you hold down Option to move the cursor one word at
0:36
a time. Using Option with the Up and Down arrow keys will jump to the top and bottom of a paragraph
0:43
Similarly, Command-Left and Right will go to the beginning or end of a line, and Command-Up
0:48
and Down will jump to the top and bottom of the entire document
0:55
You can also combine these same keyboard shortcuts with the Shift key to select text
1:00
Shift-Option-Left and Right will highlight one word at a time, Shift-Command-Left and
1:05
Right will select to the beginning or end of a line, Shift-Option-Up and Down goes to
1:12
the beginning or end of the paragraph, and Shift-Command-Up and Down goes to the beginning
1:17
and bottom of the whole document. So that is how you can quickly edit text on the Mac
1:26
If you commit this to muscle memory, you will be a text editing pro
