Hey guys, I just got a mac and I used to use the Alt+Tab function on the PC. If you don't know this will minimize any full screen program. I've tried everything I can think of, but it still doesnt work. Anybody know the command to do this?

ALT+TAB on a Windows system just cycles through your active programs, it doesn't minimize anything. Command+Tab does the same thing on a Mac.
If you are looking to just minimize your window, Command+M will do that.

i dont have no mac's
yes, command tab will cycle through open applications
command m will minimize window
command h will hide the application and all windows associated with it, and it wont leave the window in your right side of the dock
command q will quit the program

there is a big thread full of keyboard shortcuts in the forum somewhere, search for it
