Windows style Home/End/Movements

DefaultKeyBinding.md

I wanted my Home and End keys to behave as they do in Windows. I found a nice solution here and thought I would update with the recomended changes for modern OS versions.

1. If not present, create directory ~/Library/KeyBindings.
2. Create file ~/Library/KeyBindings/DefaultKeyBinding.dict

3. Paste the following contents:
{
  "\UF729"  = moveToBeginningOfLine:; // home
  "\UF72B"  = moveToEndOfLine:; // end
  "$\UF729" = moveToBeginningOfLineAndModifySelection:; // shift-home
  "$\UF72B" = moveToEndOfLineAndModifySelection:; // shift-end
  "^\UF729" = moveToBeginningOfDocument:; // ctrl-home
  "^\UF72B" = moveToEndOfDocument:; // ctrl-end
  "^$\UF729" = moveToBeginningOfDocumentAndModifySelection:; // ctrl-shift-home
  "^$\UF72B" = moveToEndOfDocumentAndModifySelection:; // ctrl-shift-end
  ”^\UF702” = (moveWordLeft:); // ctrl-left 
  “^$\UF702” = (moveWordLeftAndModifySelection:); // ctrl-shift-left 
  “^\UF703” = (moveWordRight:); // ctrl-right 
  “^$\UF703” = (moveWordRightAndModifySelection:); // ctrl-shift-right
}

4. Run killall Finder to implement changes.
