It is 8 years ago, so it is hard to remember exactly, but I found something on my old blog: > Appendix: The hopeless keyboard addicts guide to the Mac keyboard: > I was about to make a table here, detailing how to get at least home/end and pageup/down in the most used programs. But then some programs even differ inside of the program (like, "home" and "end" are mapped to different key combos depending on if you are located in the address bar of you browser or in a text area. This is especially funny when you've almost finished some writing on a blog, a company intranet etc, you want to select one line of text to move it around, and you forget that the key combo that means mark to start of line in one application means go to previous page in the browser. This particular one has hit me twice.) > Here are a few hints anyway: > - ctrl+a go to start of line. Works in almost every program, including terminal, but doesn't work together with shift. > - ctrl+e go to end of line. Works in almost every program, including terminal, but doesn't work together with shift. > - cmd + arrows/fn + arrows - may or may not works for either home/end. Depends on mood of programmer, moon phase when program was written or some other, unknown parameter. If one doesn't work, try another, they rarely do anything really wrong except triggering the web browser back action. > ... from https://techinorg.blogspot.com/2010/04/swithing-to-mac-one-year-after.html https://techinorg.blogspot.com/2010/04/swithing-to-mac-one-y... I'll admit that I haven't written anything about selecting words, and I don't trust my memory to be perfect, but I am also not sure I misremember that part. If it was only home/end I think I could have dealt with it by using shift-up/down.
