Smells like windows if End is God Tier but Home isn't. On the command line being without either would kill my speed something fierce
On SSH that button is a killer, even works in vim. For home I never found any use.
oh shit it actually goes to the beginning of a line, instant upgrade to god tier
... I'm curious what you thought it did
translate "home" from finnish to english ;)
Oh that's interesting. You thought it was a back key? That's very interesting to me as I've been using computers since before a 'back button' on browsers was a thing.
I actually thought it was like a reset button, like when using a browser, pressing home would put you into your home page. If the name was start, like end, I may have tried to actually use it for text editing.
And those who don't want to translate it, "Home" is "Mold" in Finnish, a running joke that the button is never used lol.
