http://www.wolfram.com/mathematica/newin5/importexport/importexport.html

...you can select all cells of a given style by holding down the Alt key (Option key for Macintosh) and then selecting the cell bracket of one cell of that style. This is helpful for deleting all output cells from a notebook, for example.

...when working with nested or complex expressions in a notebook, you can select a specific function and its entire body within the larger expression by triple-clicking on the function name. You can also triple-click an opening or closing list brace to select an entire list.
