Shifty Space Mac OS

On Windows, non-breaking space & hyphen is 'easy'. Use:
Cntl+Shift+space
Cntl+Shift+hyphen
But on a Mac, the Mac BU just likes to be annoying apparently because they chose to be inconsistent for no apparent reason. Took 10 minutes to find anything on it via Googlefu. So here it is for posterity in one place:
Option-Space
Cmd-Shift-hyphen
What is a non-breaking space?
- It's a trick to keep words and numbers together at the end of the line, to prevent the words or number from splitting between two lines.
So for example, if you are near the end of a line and type 'Mr. Smith', you could end up with 'Mr.' on one line, and 'Smith' on the next. By inserting a special non-breaking space between 'Mr.' and 'Smith', the whole thing stays together on moves to the second line altogether. It's useful for keeping names, phone numbers and compound words together.

That's been around as long as I can remember, I think in the pre-OS X days as well. I can only test it in Classic right now, but yes, it works there.

Yes, it was already there before Mac OS X, and with international keyboard layouts as well.

Woah. I am surprised this isn't in here yet. This has definitely been around since the classic days, maybe even System 1.0 as another commenter suggests.
Option-Space also sometimes lets you type a space character when the spacebar would otherwise do something else, such as selecting the first item in a folder instead of activating Quicklook in the Leopard Finder (I think this hint was posted here). Ditto for selecting playlists in iTunes instead of play/pausing (I don't know if that has been hinted. Fair game if it hasn't).

In OS X, you can easily create new shortcuts.
Create a file called: ~/Library/KeyBindings/DefaultKeyBinding.dict
using a plain text editor.
Add a line like:
'^`' = ('insertText:', '‑'); /* nbhy */
This means 'Control-` generates a command to insert a non-breaking hyphen character.
You can also insert a whole word, which is good for words or sequences of words you type often that are long like:
'^M' = ( 'insertText:', 'Massachusetts' );
'^N' = ( 'insertText:', 'New Hampshire' );
which means Control-M (not Control-m) inserts Massachusetts.
You can also use 2 character sequences, like
'^s' = {
'^c' = ('insertText:', '✔');
'^x' = ('insertText:', '✘'); /* X Symbol */
'^1' = ('insertText:', '¹'); /* superscript 1 */
'^2' = ('insertText:', '²'); /* superscript 2 */
'^3' = ('insertText:', '³'); /* superscript 3 */
};
Then Control-s followed by Control-c enters a check mark, etc.
Yes, this also be used for commands like:
'^a' = 'deleteToBeginningOfParagraph:';
which is similar to the built-in Control-k command (delete to end of paragraph and put it in the yank buffer).
Or to move the cursor right by 7 words:
'^UF703' = (
'moveWordForward:',
'moveWordForward:',
'moveWordForward:',
'moveWordForward:',
'moveWordForward:',
'moveWordForward:',
'moveWordForward:'
);
I get endless amusement out of this kind of thing.
