PC Style Keypad

[pixelblender]

Hi guys,

Tried to search this forum but can't find anything similar. On Linux and Windows i use home key and end key on numeric keypad frequently to move the cursor to the start or end of a line. Since i do a lot of programming this frustrates me . I tried to install DoubleCommand and tick the "PC style Home and End keys" but it doesn't work.

Here's what i have:
- Snow Leopard 10.6.3 as 64 bit on GA-P55A-UD4P.
- Logitech Cordless Internet Pro keyboard with Logitech Control Center 3.2 installed.
- DoubleCommand 1.6.9 installed.

Many thanks guys for being a wonderful community.

Cheers,

PA

if you are looking for the functionality and not a workaround the PC style home and end is command key + left or right arrow.

I always use the built-in to Cocoa emacs keybindings. For example, end of line is ^E, beginning of line is ^A, delete the whole line ahead of the cursor is ^K, paste what you cut with ^K is ^Y....

But yeah that app works too!
