10.9: Terminal text shortcuts still work in Safari
Interesting that emacs shortcuts are system-wide! I definitely did not know that, thanks for posting.
The command &/or option shortcuts have been a staple of the Mac OS since I was a kid (command for start-end of lines/top-bottom of documents & option for just words/paragraphs). Note holding Shift will then SELECT the corresponding text - this is where it gets exceptionally handy. (eg. Option-Shift-Right to select the next word, option-shift-down to select to the end of the paragraph, command-shift-down to select to the bottom of the document etc. etc. I use Command-up & command-down often in Safari to see the top or bottom of a page, where useful links are usually stored. These pretty much work in MS docs too, as they're system-wide text-editing shortcuts. I never realized how much these shortcuts are ingrained in my use of a keyboard - I suppose they're not so obvious, are they? It's interesting that Emacs shortcuts also work in tandem with holding Shift to select. What is the emacs command for top/bottom? Does emacs have a start/end-of-current-paragraph shortcut too, like the Mac OS's option-down/up? |
