Eclipse CTRL+A, CTRL+E go to beginning go to end of line

I searched and was very surprised that I can't find a possibility to make CTRL+A, CTRL+E work. So I can jump to the beginning or end of the line. I'm working on a Mac and don't have Pos1 or Home Button on my keyboard.

I'm pretty used to it, because everywhere I need it, it exists, not so in eclipse.

Another option I found was:

  1. going to preferences
  2. to general -> Editors -> keys
  3. from Scheme select Emacs
  4. Sorry I tried to post a pic, but apparently I need more points...

When you set custom keys in eclipse - just make sure that the keys you assign are not already assigned to different actions. e.g.

  1. enter "ctrl+a" into the filter field and "unbind" the shortcut from all actions that you don't need
  2. select action you want ("line start"), put cursor in "Binding" field and click Ctrl+A
