The first place I find written documentation of the cmd-arrow  
functions  is in the R MacOSX FAQ:
12.8 Why are Quartz plots much bigger than they used to be?
(Second paragraph)

(I may have read about the stack depth in one of the postings from  
Simon in this venue. The figure of ten is a rough guess. The true  
value is somewhere  in the range of 8 to 15.)

I have not found a place for users to change this. May be that a  
compile time change is needed. (Simon will hopefully correct me if  
this is wrong.)

I tried searching MarkMail's archive with a couple of strategies, ...  
the last unsuccessful one was:

http://markmail.org/search/?q=simon+urbanek+list%3Aorg.r-project.r-sig-mac+graphics+increase#query 
:simon%20urbanek%20list%3Aorg.r-project.r-sig-mac%20graphics%20increase 
+page:2+mid:ykmzj6mwesj3wywu+state:results

(I don't know if that will be paste-worthy or click-worthy.)

If the Quartz window is the focus, the Quartz menu options will become  
active  and even if not the focus the menu will also tell you the  
keyboard equivalents (standard Mac behavior). I think that is where I  
learned it.
