Note   The Home command is different from the LineStart command. LineStart always moves the cursor to the first column in the line; Home moves the cursor to different locations depending on the cursor's current location. The Home command moves the cursor to the first non-blank character in the line. However, if the cursor is already located on the first non-blank character, Home moves to the first column of the line.
