Mac window screen shots

To take a screen shot of a particular window on the Mac, hold down the Command + Shift + 4 keys, let them all up, then press the space bar. At that point the cursor will turn into a camera and as you move over windows they will be highlighted. When the window you want is highlighted, click the mouse button and you will have a screen shot of that window.
