With all of Mac OS X’s spit and polish, it is easy to forget there is a Unix computer under there. Reader Francois recently turned me on this excellent collection of Mac OS X key bindings. Take a long look. I’m sure you’ll find a few that can help you out, today. For instance, I had no idea you could tab inside a form box with Option + Tab.
If that isn’t enough, roll your own bindings with KeyBindingsEditor, which I haven’t had time to test but looks interesting.

It's probably easier to skip KeyBindingsEditor and just edit those files by hand. My DefaultKeyBinding.dict has lots of macros and stuff, it could be used as a starting point.

"insertText:", "\t"seems to work more often than ⌥⇥ (insertTabIgnoringFieldEditor:).It's probably easier to skip KeyBindingsEditor and just edit those files by hand. My DefaultKeyBinding.dict has lots of macros and stuff, it could be used as a starting point.
