I'm not sure, but even if I had 'home' and 'end' enabled, I wouldn't use
them because I can do the same things using Ctrl-a and Ctrl-e.  It's a lot
faster to use those keys because you don't have to reach over to another
part of the keyboard.  Also Ctrl-a and Ctrl-e are standard emacs
keystrokes used by many other programs, for example, the bash and tcsh
command lines, octave/matlab, even netscape for unix.
