I cannot get Home and End keys to work for zsh under Cygwin. Various sources seem to suggest that
bindkey '\e[1~' beginning-of-line
bindkey '\e[4~' end-of-line
will fix the problem but this does not work for me. Strangely, after I enter
bindkey "\e[3~" delete-char
the Delete button starts working (before that it just outputs ~).
Does anyone has an idea what is going on?
I'm on Windows XP and I am using the latest versions of the available Cygwin packages.
UPDATE: This seems to be a problem with mintty, if I run cygwin.bat that launches the Windows command prompt, then everything works fine. Maybe it is related to this bug?
