define 'Home' and 'End' on MacOS (uses Microsoft Keyboard) to be like Microsoft Windows

macos_keyboard_hack_homebtn

As you know in Microsoft Windows there is a button 'Home' which go to the begning of line and  and button 'End' goes to the end of line.

In MacOS if you use Keyboard others that Mac Keyboard you cannot use 'Home' and 'End' button because it is not defined.

buu sure you can customize it and use it exactly as you use on Microsoft Keyboard

to do that open terminal and goto folder `~/Library/KeyBindings/` by running the command

```bash
cd ~/Library/KeyBindings/
```
if the folder `KeyBindings` does not exists you can make it by running the command 

```
cd cd ~/Library
mkdir KeyBindings
```

then goto the folder `KeyBindings` and create a new file names `DefaultKeyBinding.dict` using

```
cd ~/Library/KeyBindings/
nano DefaultKeyBinding.dict
```

and Add the following code to the file and save it

```
{
    "\UF729"  = moveToBeginningOfLine:; // home
    "\UF72B"  = moveToEndOfLine:; // end
    "$\UF729" = moveToBeginningOfLineAndModifySelection:; // shift-home
    "$\UF72B" = moveToEndOfLineAndModifySelection:; // shift-end
}
```

this will define the `home` button. to goto begning of line and define the end button  to go to the end of line.

Applying changes requires reopening applications. 

DefaultKeyBinding.dict is ignored by some old versions of Xcode (works with latest version 6.3.1), Terminal, and many cross-platform applications.


this was tested on MacOS 14.2 (Sonoma)
