For me, Ctrl-a and Ctrl-e move the cursor in an ERT frame to the first and last characters of the frame, respectively. However, I'm not sure if this is because I'm using Emacs keybindings or because I'm using a Mac, which also uses those keybindings in text areas.

Thanks for the reply!  Unfortunately, no luck.

I have been using the mac keybindings, plus some customizations.  Unfortunately, neither with the mac keybindings nor when I change to the emacs keybindings (I was hoping to get the code that way) do I see these actions.  With the mac keybindings, ctrl-e takes me to the end of the on-screen line, but not the end of the frame.  Ctrl-a alone seems to do nothing except display "^a options" on the status bar at the bottom.  With the emacs keybindings, both ctrl-a and ctrl-e yield "unknown function".


Ctrl-o closes the frame and places the cursor to its immediate left; that behavior is definitely due to my choice of Emacs keybindings.

Is there any way to program a key so that if you are typing within an ERT frame, it takes the cursor to the last (or first) character in that frame?

Also useful would be a way to exit the frame — landing at at the first non-ERT character to the left or right of the frame.
