#osx #tips #yosemite | Your Yosemite upgrade may take many hours if you’ve got anything non-Apple in your /usr folder (Homebrew, Texlive, or Mactex for example).

osx - Please share your hidden OS X features or tips and tricks - Ask Different

My favorite among the ones I wasn't already familiar with: typing Control-Delete right after an accented character will remove just the accent. Useless to me in most cases, but again, attention to detail.
