To go to the top of a file (any file) use gg or 1G or :1<Enter> To go to the bottom, use G or :$<Enter> ]] and [[ are supposed to go forward/backward to the start of a section (or, if not remapped, to a { in column 1). If you type more slowly than 'timeoutlen' (q.v.) the mappings time out and you get the default behaviour again.
