> what's the keyboard shortcut on a Mac to go to the beginning of your current line? Ah trick question, it's different for every god damned application!

It's Control-A in every app!

Sure, but ain't nobody got time for getting the right hand out of the home row. Emacs keybindings everywhere is one of the things that keeps me using OS X. As a bonus, remapping Caps Lock to Control like a proper UNIX keyboard is a few clicks away.

What's funny is that Microsoft Outlook on the Mac does not abide by that shortcut. It does a select-all.
