FYI, this fixes home/end issues in coda as well.

[...] a fix available here : KeyFixer that fixes this in most standard OSX apps and works great, but it doesn’t fix it for Eclipse [...]

@szmash
Not exactly sure what you were trying to enter, but I couldn’t get any of those combinations to work. Doing like Rob said here, http://www.starryhope.com/tech/apple/2006/keyfixer/#comment-658 worked for me.

okay, I’ll try again:

home: \033[1~
end: \033[4~
pgup: \033[5~
pgdown: \033[6~

(moderator, please edit my comments so the codes appear properly and I don’t appear an idiot:)

correction to my previous comment:
the blog engine removed the two initial characters from my posted ascii codes.

so, again, these are the correct codes:

home: \33[1~
end: \33[4~
pgup: \33[5~
pgdown: \33[6~

For those of you wanting to fix your HOME and END buttons in the Terminal of OSX Snow Leopard so that they work similarly to a PC environment (e.g. through a remote ssh connection with a linux box, in midnight commander, vim, and so on) the correct ascii characters to enter into the Terminal/Preferences/Settings/Keyboard dialog are:

home: 33[1~
end: 33[4~
pgup: 33[5~
pgdown: 33[6~
