The Tilde Key - Illustrator

The ~ Key

By holding the tilde [~] key down while using any line drawing tool (except the flare tool :/), you will multiply it's effects.

Say you want a hundred little lines emanating from a single point, select the Segment Tool and click-drag with it while also holding down the tilde key, and viola, a hundred little lines emanating from a single point on your illustration.
