Keyboard looks great but no insert-delete-home-end cluster means an instant no from me in any keyboard, how do you people move without those keys? I've cringed enough in my life seeing people pressing the arrow keys and waiting 5-20 seconds while the cursor traverse an entire phrase/paragraph.
- rewgs 4y agoMac users don’t need them. Not sure about Insert, but Cmd+backspace, Cmd+up or left arrow, Cmd+down or right arrow give you delete/home/end respectively. Alt+up/down arrow gives you page up/down.
- AbraKdabra 4y agoThe fact that you don't need them doesn't mean everyone else doesn't use them, also, how do you know what every Mac user thinks? Also you know there are other OSs around don't you?
- silon42 4y agoWhen I've used a Mac, I've used them (external keyboard, the laptop one is useless for me).
- waaveshine 4y agoEmacs shortcuts are universal in macOS and much more convenient than home/end/delete/etc in my opinion.
- AbraKdabra 4y agoThat's oddly specific and doesn't solve the real problem. Also there is a world outside Emacs and macOS, like a ton of other applications and OS.
