i'm currently switching from windows/linux to Mac and I'm used to using a full-length mechanical keyboard with ins/del/home/end/pgup/pgdn buttons. Yes, mac has these cmd+ shortcuts that work as expected, but the "usual" keys behave wrong/inconsistent in some apps:
Chrome:
- Shift+Home/End selects to the start/end of the entire textarea.
- Home/End first scrolls the textarea, if it is not, if it is already scrolled (this is double weird if you are somewhere down in the textarea, press home, it scrolls you to the top, press home again, it scrolls you back to where you were with the cursor on beginning of the line, then it goes to the start/end of the line as expected.
Safari:
- Home/End only scroll the page, have no effect in textarea,
- Shift+Home/End selects to the start/end of the textarea.
Also, I can't get insert to work in none of my IDEs (pycharm, vscode)
- jackson1442 6y agoI just have a macbook, so no insert key at all, but vscode has an insert extension that I use when I need insert mode. Probably doing it wrong, but it works very nicely for me when I need it.
