Did you know...?
...if you are in doubt about a command's name or the arguments it
requires, help is available directly from the command line. To use
Complete Selection, type the first few letters of the command name
and press CONTROL+K (Windows), COMMAND+K (Macintosh),
or Mod1+K (X). Mathematica will show you a pop-up list of
possible completions, including user-defined functions...

...Make Template will insert a template based on the currently selected
function name. To see a template of the command and its optional
parameters, press
SHIFT+CONTROL+K
(Windows), SHIFT+COMMAND+K (Macintosh), or SHIFT+Mod1+K (X). For example, if
your selection is Plot, Mathematica will return
Plot[f, {x, xmin,
xmax}], which shows the simplest form of the Plot
function...
