New gestures in Mountain Lion

If you’ve downloaded Mountain Lion, the newest version of Mac OS X, then you’ll probably be eager to find out what the new gestures and shortcuts are.

Here’s a few of them:

• You can open Dictation by pressing the function key twice in a row.
• If you tap the trackpad with three fingers, then you can preview any type of file – although only files that work in the Quick Look preview.
• Swipe back and forward with two fingers to navigate within apps.
• Look up words in the dictionary by tapping with three fingers.
• You can use “save as” if you hold the option key when you’re in the File menu.
