I was using Dreamweaver today as I do every day and after going through adding lots of paragraph tags manually I figured there should be a shortcut to enclose text in a <p> tag. I knew of quite a few already such as Ctrl + B to put content in a <strong> tag and Ctrl + G to go to a line you want.
After a quick Google, I found a list of many Dreamweaver shortcuts. Lucky for me there was one for enclosing text in a paragraph (Ctrl + Shift + P).
Below is the complete list I found:
