For clarification,
• HOME: Moves focus to the end of the line.
This should say
HOME: Moves focus to the beginning of the line.
and,
• END: Moves focus to the beginning of the line.
This should say
• END: Moves focus to the end of the line.
You should make the corrections before passing this along again.
HTH,
