replacement for home key in Terminal?

SOLVED: replacement for home key in Terminal?

I have a new MacBook Pro, and its keyboard doesn't have Home or End keys. I've learned that ⌘+← and similar do the same thing, which is great, but the one application they don't seem to work in is Terminal, which is extremely annoying as I use bash a fair amount.

What can I press to go to the start/end of a line in Terminal?

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

ctrl -a will go back to the start of a line at a prompt and ctrl - e will go to the end, that will be pretty standard across shells and systems so you're covered almost everywhere (like vi ). Anything else would be application specific (like nano, vi, etc etc etc)


edited for making a coherent thought.

Try the Function Button + the directional pad. Yep, seems to be working.

Doesn't work in my terminal instance.
