Description Enrico Scholz 2001-08-23 15:38:29 UTC 
It would be nice if the listboxes would recognize:

* <home>/<end> -> move to the first/last element
* <A>-<Z> -> move to the first element having the pressed key as its first
letter

This is a GTK issue, I think.
Comment 2 Owen Taylor 2001-08-23 20:14:57 UTC 
The request for HOME/END working is upstream in the list/tree key navigation
scheme that will be implemented in GTK+-2.0
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53580.

The GTK+-2.0 tree/list widget also has a interactive search feature that
is meant to be a better replacement for jumping when hitting the first
letter. (It is much the same, but the characters entered are displayed,
you can type more than one letter, and it internationalizes properly.)
