When typing a command, (i.e., su/.../.../) how can I jump
around on the command line without using the arrow keys. That
is, how can I jump to the beginning, or the end, or move
backward/forward? In a terminal, I can just use the CTRL-A
and CTRL-E to go to the beginning and end of the command. Is
there something similar in Vim?
I believe, only <home> does that, but since I don't use the stock
functionality of ^A in the command-line, I occasionally remap it:
:cnoremap <c-a> <home>
which makes it behave as you expect. ^E already should behave as
you expect:
:help c_CTRL-E
Currently ^B is set to act as home, but my bash-fingers never
reach for that, so it might also help to add
:cnoremap <c-b> <left>
:cnoremap <c-f> <right>
:cnoremap <m-f> <c-right>
:cnoremap <m-b> <c-left>
