Question or issue on macOS:
I know that I can jump at the beginning and end of a line inside the OS X terminal with Ctrl+A and Ctrl + E. But I’m so used to jump with Cmd+Right arrow and Cmd+Left arrow from my editor, that I would love to use this shortcuts also for the terminal.
I haven’t found a solution on google, so maybe here someone can help.
Update
As in the comments, I tried the solution from Is there any way in the OS X Terminal to move the cursor word by word?
Unfortunately, the Terminal settings seems to not include Cmd as a Modifier Key, as you can see here:
How to solve this problem?
Solution no. 1:
I use a handy app called Karabiner to do this, and many other things. It’s free and open source.
It’s a keyboard remapper, with a lot of handy presets for many common remaps that people may want to do.
As you can see from the screenshot, this remap is included as a preset in Karabiner.
Hope this helps. Happy remapping!

these work for me

In the latest Mac OS You can use shift + home or shift + end
Solution no. 4:
As setup in the terminal using vi:
Jumper (pepperoni_pizza55554) Mac Os Catalina
The Home button on a Macbook Pro keyboard: Fn + Left Arrow.
The End button on a Macbook Pro keyboard: Fn + Right Arrow.

For iterm2:
Jumper (pepperoni_pizza55554) Mac Os Download
Go to Profiles / Open Profiles / Keys
Set Cmd + left_arrow_key to Send Hex Code 001
Set Cmd + right_arrow_key to Send Hex Code 005
This allows you to use Cmd + arrow_keys to move from beginning to end of the line.

I am not sure if this will work for you (I still use OS 10.8), but these work for my terminal:
Hope this helps!
Solution no. 7:
fn + leftArraw or fn + rightArrow worked for me!
Solution no. 8:
Here I found a tweak for this, without any third party tool. This will make the following shortcut to work:
- Open terminal preferences.(
cmd + ,). - Go to your selected theme and then to the keyboard tab.
And add a new entry as following.
That’s all. Now close and check.
Hope it helps.
EDIT: Refer to the comment by @Maurice Gilden below for more insights.

You could download Better Touch Tools. It’s an app that allows you to make custom key-bindings and shortcuts over your entire system or individual apps. Using it, you could make a shortcut in the terminal that emulates ctrl-a/ctrl-e whenever you press cmd-left/cmd-right, respectively. I definitely recommend it! I’ve been using it for years and I have over 50 shortcuts spread across several different apps.
