Substitute for arrow keys in the visual studio 2010 editor

Afzal Pawaskar

I hate to leave the home position to get to the arrow keys. Are there any hotkeys for manipulating the cursor other than the arrow keys? What about custom hotkeys? WASD would be preferred along with some combination like Alt+Shift.

what i meant is that i dont want to take my hands off the asdf and jkl; keys. Home and End keys come on the same side as the arrow keys...

If you want to move the cursor you could do that with Ctrl combination keys like Ctrl + end takes to he end of the line and Ctrl + Home takes to the first character in the line, etc if that is what you are looking at at..
