Apply Crop Shortcut?

By selecting "C" you pull up the Crop window but is there an Apply Crop shortcut so you don't have to mouse to the corner to apply crop? I have a bunch of pictures that I hit C, pull down the appropriate custom crop and then have to mouse to apply the crop = it would seem there is a way to do that with a keystroke...any suggestions?

MacPro, intel MBPro, MBAir & Aperture, Mac OS X (10.5.7), and iPhone 3G of course!

As mentioned the enter key applies the crop and exits the crop tool and lift and stamp can apply the same crop to as many images as you would like.

Just wanted to add that if you have the crop tool selected and move through images with a crop adjustment already applied there is no need to open and close the crop over and over again for each image just leave the crop tool selected and do not hit enter. This saves a lot of wasted motion when dealing with dozens of images that you just stamped with a crop and need to fine tune them.

I hit the "A" key to apply the crop (zoom in to just cropped area and see if I like the result)... is that what you're looking for?
