Depends on the shell/terminal you are using. But basically, home, end, etc, generate escape sequences that depend on your terminal type. Best way to configure this is to edit your login script, e.g. .cshrc or .profile, and insert something like: # for C shell bindkey '[Ctrl-V][Home]' beginning-of-line # for Bourne shell bind '[Ctrl-V][Home]'=beginning-of-line Note: [Ctrl-V] means press Ctrl & V keys together, likewise, [Home] means press Home key. If only I could get [Ctrl-Left] & [Ctrl-Right] to skip words like [Esc-B] & [Esc-F] do. Can anyone do this?
