How to make gVim on Ubuntu behave like gVim on Windows?

Searching for an answer I found this question, which is an exact opposite case, and the answers gave me a hint - so I went on and entered:

:behave mswin

This helped with the text selection thing, but I still can't make gVim to move the cursor to the next line once it reached the EOL when using the cursor right key (for example). It just get stuck at the EOL. How can I change this?

EDIT: Just found out that the <CTRL-A> for "Select All" does not work as expected as well.

OK, found the missing piece - once sourcing

:source $VIMRUNTIME/mswin.vim

the behavior did change as expected.
