I have been using Windows systems for a few years now, and most of my tasks used to get accomplished without using the mouse. I have recently switched to Ubuntu 14.04, and I'm eager to know the keyboard shortcuts. I have some confusions as well.

  1. I use this combo Alt+F2 to go to my home folders \home\ etc. Is there any way out? I used to do the same using winkey+R in Windows.
  2. I will be using Google Chrome, TexMaker and LibreOffice only. I would love to know if there are quicker ways to launch these apps, other than going to the launch bar and clicking their icons. For Chrome, I do this google-chrome in the terminal. It was way easier in Windows though; just winkey+R and then chrome.
  3. When I'm using chrome, if I press Alt then there's this Type your command bar pops up on top of my screen. What's that?

If someone can give me a handy document where all the shortcuts are placed, I'll be glad. Thanks!
