This page is a reference table. Elsewhere, a shortcut always appears with its menu command: a command is easy to find again, while a shortcut can be forgotten.
Help > Keyboard Shortcuts (⌘/) shows the same list in the application.
Actions in macOS Shortcuts
Balise supplies four local Shortcuts actions: create Markdown, open a favorite, inspect a CSV and export a CSV report. Their action titles remain in French in this version: Créer un Markdown, Ouvrir un favori, Inspecter un CSV and Exporter un rapport CSV, respectively. Actions that write ask for a folder, a name and an explicit policy if the destination exists. By default, they refuse to overwrite.
Inspection and export use the same bounded CSV engine as Balise. None uses the network. An inaccessible favorite fails with a prompt to reconnect it in Balise.
Find a command or file
Open Tools > Command Palette… (⇧⌘P), then type part of the name you seek. The palette combines commands, compatible files in the current folder, favorites and Settings tabs. Use arrows to browse results, Return to act and Escape to close.
A command inapplicable to the active content stays visible and explains why. Opening a file or favorite keeps the Save, Don’t Save or Cancel prompt when current work has changed.

In the data grid
Movement keys follow macOS conventions: arrows move the active cell, ⇧ extends selection and page keys move one screen.
