Hi I feel that this  a prety common request: Bind the Home/End keys to move to the beginning and end of lines respectively.

In Mac OS X (10.5 and 10.6) some applications use the Cmd-Rigt and Cmd-Left to perform these actions but, call me old fashioned, I like to use Home and End instead.

It is actually very easy to change the Cocoa Key bindings for any user under Mac OS. Just follow these steps:

1. Create a file called DefaultKeyBinding.dict in ~/Library/KeyBindings directory

   mkdir ~/Library/KeyBindings
   cd ~/Library/KeyBindings
   touch DefaultKeyBinding.dict

2. Edit your DefaultKeyBinding.dict file so it contains:

   {
   /* home */
   "\UF729"  = "moveToBeginningOfLine:";
   "$\UF729" = "moveToBeginningOfLineAndModifySelection:";
   
   /* Cmd-Left */
   "@\UF702"  = "moveToBeginningOfLine:";
   "$@\UF702" = "moveToBeginningOfLineAndModifySelection:";
   
   /* Cmd-Right */
   "@\UF703"  = "moveToEndOfLine:";
   "$@\UF703" = "moveToEndOfLineAndModifySelection:";
   
   /* end */
   "\UF72B"  = "moveToEndOfLine:";
   "$\UF72B" = "moveToEndOfLineAndModifySelection:";
   
   /* page up/down */
   "\UF72C"  = "pageUp:";
   "\UF72D"  = "pageDown:";
   }

3. Restart the Cocoa Application.

This example works very well with TextMate.

In order to bind other keys you need to find their Scan code, and you can use the following modifiers

When running Outlook 2007 inside Parallels in MAC OS Leopard, I could not send email. If I used the “Test Account Settings” in when configuring my email account Outlook sent the email and said all was ok, but when trying to send regular email from the Outbox everything was not ok and no email was going out. I could not send email no matter what changes I tried in Outlook. 

Tested the connectivity with the mail server using telnet and Thunderbird and all worked fine. So the problem was in Outlook it self.I then downloaded DRTcp and configured the MTU to 1492. After a reboot all email was going out with no problems! 

If Microsoft Outlook chases you even in your MAC, and you can receive email, but cannot send this may help you.
