What about Home and End keys? I used a Mac for 6 months, but really really really missed the Home and End keys to go to the beginning and end of lines... Termin

  Ctrl-a, ctrl-e for beginning/end of line. Standard emacs keybindings work almost everywhere in OS X. But, you can also rebind the home/end keys - http://www.hcs.harvard.edu/~jrus/site/cocoa-text.html http://www.hcs.harvard.edu/~jrus/site/cocoa-text.html Edit: On a Macbook Pro, home/end are fn-left/right-arrow and page-up/down are fn-up/down-arrow.

    >>> Ctrl-a, ctrl-e for beginning/end of line. Alternatively: Command+← and Command+→ .

      Don't have the iMac anymore, but what made matters worse was that I switched Control and Command to make more of my shortcuts work. Command+C or Command+V isn't a very natural finger movement on the Mac keyboard I had. Ctrl+V fits much better and matched up many more (Windows) keyboard shortcuts. But it made shortcut listings more confusing, because that would become Ctrl+← and Ctrl+→ (which I'm pretty sure I tried in Terminal but would always skip to the end of the command line, not the end of the screen line). The only keyboard shortcut that hurt after switching command and ctrl was in chrome. Chrome's History is Ctrl+H on windows, but Command-Y on mac, due to Command+H hiding the current window. That got me every time.

  The home and end keys drive me crazy.
