This hint didn't work for me
Authored by: steresi on Nov 03, '04 11:05:31AM

I've tried adding the line "export TERM=linux" into .bash_profile in my home directory. I opened a new terminal window and the Home and End keys didn't move to the start or end of the line. (I did make sure that .bash_profile was executing at login by adding the line "echo 'hello'".)

Setting the TERM variable has no effect on Terminal's handling of END/HOME/PGUP/PGDN etc as by default, Terminal scrolls around the buffer.

This behaviour is changed in Windows Settings, keyboard tab.

I suspect the poster had already modified that but neglected to mention it.
