It's been a while since I received the reply, sorry for being so late in reacting meaningfully. I copied the file

~/Library/Preferences/TeXShop.plist

over, but the key bindings were not transferred (colors were). I am referring to the bindings that I can assign by following Source > Key Bindings >Edit etc. I looked in ~/Library/TeXShop, nothing struck my imagination. There were a couple of files whose name started with `Macros', but they were not it (perhaps unsurprisingly, the bindings are not macros).

Does anyone know the precise file where the key bindings are stored?

Thanks again.
Nicolae

I am wondering whether there is an easy way to export all (customized) settings from texshop on one computer (version 3.08, if relevant) to then import into texshop on another computer (some later version probably, from about 2 months ago; I can confirm exact version if deemed useful). These settings involve mostly colors — some that I chose through the GUI (such as the background color, for which I never had a precise — numerical — description) and some that I chose in the terminal (through trial and error, and which I do not remember) — and keyboard shortcuts.

Note that you may also have some custom stuff in:

~/Library/TeXShop

that will also need to be moved, but color defs and the like are in:

~/Library/Preferences/TeXShop.plist
