Many keyboard bindings can be changed in springsettings.exe (hotkeys tab). In case that doesn't work, [http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=25043 this] forum thread might be helpful.

Mouse 3 Pan camera (mouse 2 is normally pressing the scroll wheel)
SHIFT Queue order. Press shift as you give the order, queue up as many as you like! Press Ctrl/Alt as well for building formations.
[ and ] Rotate building (first select something to build and then rotate)
A Attack (attack unit/ground)
M Move
F Fight (as move, but units will stop to kill enemies along the way)
