Home and End keys

[Kasuha]

I am using "default" disk map where start of the disk is at the bottom of the screen. When the view is zoomend, Home key moves zoomed view to the top of the disk bitmap which contains the end of the disk. End key moves the view to the bottom of the bitmap, which is the start of the disk.

In my opinion, it is counterintuitive.

My proposal is to change behaviour of Home and End keys so that Home key always displays start of the disk and End key always displays end of the disk, regardless if the disk map is top-down or bottom-up.

Thanks for sharing your idea, I appreciate it. But I'm afraid I disagree, the Home key should always move to the top of the display, the End key should always move to the bottom of the display, irrespective of where the beginning of the harddisk is.

the Home key should always move to the top of the display, the End key should always move to the bottom of the display

I disagree. Home key is supposed to move the "cursor" to "start" and the End key is supposed to move the "cursor" to "end". The matter is, how do we define what "start" and "end" means.
If you use arabic system for instance, the Home key moves cursor to the right end of the line, not to the left one. And yet, cursor keys work normally, i.e. the left arrow moves cursor to the left and right arrow to the right.

Okay this all is just my opinion and I accept that your opinion is different. At least I tried.

I am used to say: "Optimal solution is such a solution, that leads to the least number of complains that it is not optimal solution"

In the light of the sentence above, I am not sure Home/end key switching is optimal solution.

Hmmmm... I think the user should decide with a setting where "top" and "bottom" are situated for the Home/End Buttons.

Is not it a kind of nit-picking ?

Yes but Firefox Add-On developer call this customizing... xD

Is not better to customize your scripts and let them run in background ? :-D

I think higher priority has to be satisfied what MyDefrag does, and after that how it looks.
Jeroen's development time is limited and he must choose.
