[QUOTE="ped, post: 75528, member: 8746"] What I'm interested in is for text editing. Like say I have a paragraph of text. And say I'm in the middle of the paragraph, and the middle of a line of text. In Windows if I hit End the cursor jumps to the end of that line. If I hit Home it jumps to the beginning of that line. If I hit CTRL-Home it takes me to the beginning of all the text (before the first character of the first line), and if I hit CTRL-End it takes me to the end of all of the text (after last character on last line). On experimenting just now while writing this I discovered one way to do it on the Mac. Holding the Apple key and using the arrow keys moves the cursor like I want. Apple-Up does what CTRL-Home does, Apple-Down is CTRL-End, and Apple-Left and Apple-Right do what Home and End do. Cool. ;) [/QUOTE]
