A very easy way to see all of the key combinations and characters is to go to System Preferences, select Keyboard, and then check the box that says show Character & Keyboard Viewer in menu bar. Once this is selected you can click on the icon in the menu bar next to your battery status and select show keyboard viewer. this will give you an onscreen keyboard that shows what symbols are available when you push special keys like the alt, command, and control keys.
