Proper Mac keyboard shortcuts

A detail, but being able to save with command-S and hide with command-H would save some annoyance. Right now it's only control for some reason and hide is not supported (Adobe Air related?)

Yes, that's a good point! I have only tested on Windows so far, let me know if you find anything else that's broken on Mac.

I second this one. All the Ctrl+ shortcuts would be great if they also worked with Command. Also, Quit being Command-Q would also be nice.

Ctrl and command now work the same in the latest build. I'll also add Command-Q/Ctrl-Q, thanks.
Btw, Command-H to hide, is that the same as minimize on Windows?

you can find them under "help" in the menu.
For mac just replace ctrl with cmd.

What Simon said. It was rather hastily assembled though so I might have missed some, but the most important ones should be there.

Danik – hide isn't the same as minimize, which Macs support as well. Kind of weird: there's sort of two 'schools' of using a Mac: either you use minimize/maximize (the yellow/green pill buttons in the window bar), or you use hide/unhide. The latter is more pro-focused as it's instant (non-animated), supports unhiding using cmd-tab, is keyboard-focused instead of mouse-focused, and is application-based, not window-based. Minimize/maximize does the opposite of all those things and is therefore more discoverable and understandable, but also more annoying to power users. Unlike on Windows, a hidden app still shows its icon in the dock. Clicking the icon unhides all the app's windows.

In Air, setting 'visible' on the window to false is supposed to equal a Mac's hide behavior.

Thanks a lot for the information tacoe. Ctrl/Cmd + H minimizes in the current version, I will implement hiding for the next version.
