Ahhh, you're using Apple Terminal. All you need to do to get those to
behave in a more unix-ey way is to change your terminal settings. For
example, on OS X 10.4, under the Terminal menu, you select "Window
Settings...". In the dialog box that comes up, select "Keyboard" from
the drop-down menu at the top, and from there you can change what the
home/end/pageup/pagedown keys do. In OS X 10.5 you can do the same
thing, but they rearranged how the preferences work. I don't have a
10.5 machine handy, but I use them regularly, and I've done the same
thing to them - you'll just have to poke around.
Anyway, by default, like you say, Apple chose to make the
home/end/etc. keys work in the Terminal the way they work in other
applications: they manipulate the scroll bar. But it's relatively easy
to change them; it's just a preference setting in the Terminal
program.
