I always just use the home and end buttons for that kind of thing.

i don't even know where they are without looking at the keyboard. then when i try to press them half the time i accidentally press insert or print-screen instead

When I have this problem I remap the key I needed to a location that does work for me.

now you have two problems

I have `set -o vi` so, `esc` and `$` takes me to the end of the line. `ctrl-e` is unused for me unless I bind it to something I think is useful.
