Can't remember how to do a Mac screen grab?

Can someone with a Mac please remind me? I remember it's something like Command (apple key) shift 3 but don't you also need the space bar for something?

    Command-Shift-3 - Entire desktop

    Command-Control-Shift-3 - Copy Entire Desktop

    Command-Shift-4. - Capture ' Portion ' of desktop. use Crosshair to select TOP,LEFT and BOTTOM,RIGHT

    Command-Shift-4 + spacebar - Capture a specific program window

    Control-Command-Shift-4 / Control-Command-Shift-4 + spacebar - Copy to clipboard instead of saving file to desktop.

    It is command + shift then press 4, this will give you the crosshair to select your screen grab area or you can hit the space bar and select a window to get a screen grab of the window.
