(Press and hold)
[Left shift] & MODE = "System" softmenu
[Left shift] & TOOL = Toggle Complex / Real mode
[Left shift] & VAR = Home
[Right shift] & DownArrow = Show variables with details

There is more.

FYI, all of those are on page G-2 (near the top) in the AUR. If Appendix G really is missing any keyboard shortcuts, I'd love to know, since I wrote the first draft of that appendix and I thought it was complete.

Nice one!

I'd been looking for HOME in various menus and had come to the conclusion that I needed to type it manually or fish it out of the catalogue. Much faster this way!

That's also on page G-2. The unit conversion shortcut mentioned above is also in Appendix G. Please do check out Appendix G in the AUR. It's loaded with nifty non-obvious keyboard shortcuts.
