      In Rstudio, we can use Alt+ left/right arrow to go to either the beginning or end of the line.
      In notepad++, I can find such corresponding shortcut…
      Any tips on that?

        Use the Home key for start of line. Repeated presses of Home toggle between start of line and first non-white-space character on the line. Use the End key for end of line.

        Use Control+Home and Control+End for start and end of buffer.

          Also, Alt+Home is the default shortcut for moving to the absolute start of line.

            Thank you for the response. However, that home/end is definitely not as convenient as the Alt+left/right. Hope this feature can be added in future version.

              Why not use the Shortcut Mapper (see Settings menu), available since around 2005, to set your own preferred key combinations?:
