Sublime Text Keyboard Shortcuts

keyboard shortcuts

Is there a comprehensive list of keyboard shortcuts for use in Sublime Text 2?

I'm specifically looking for shortcuts that grant me the functionality of the arrow keys, the Home, Delete (NOT Backspace) and End keys without moving my hands off of the home row…

I should have dug more before I asked this... They are called "Key Bindings" and every single one of them is configurable from within a text file. Click "Preferences" > "Default Key Bindings" to view them. Copy and paste the ones you want to edit into "Preferences" > "User Key Bindings" to and change to your hearts content.

Here is the documentation.

My problem was that I was searching for "keyboard shortcuts" instead of "Key Bindings". Whoops...

To specifically address the question I had, about how to replicate the Delete, Home, End and Arrow keys, I have modified my "User Key Bindings" file to look like the following:

[
    { "keys": ["shift+backspace"], "command": "right_delete" },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+backspace"], "command": "right_delete" },

    { "keys": ["ctrl+j"], "command": "move", "args": {"by": "characters", "forward": false} },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+l"], "command": "move", "args": {"by": "characters", "forward": true} },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+i"], "command": "move", "args": {"by": "lines", "forward": false} },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+k"], "command": "move", "args": {"by": "lines", "forward": true} },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+shift+j"], "command": "move", "args": {"by": "characters", "forward": false, "extend": true} },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+shift+l"], "command": "move", "args": {"by": "characters", "forward": true, "extend": true} },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+shift+i"], "command": "move", "args": {"by": "lines", "forward": false, "extend": true} },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+shift+k"], "command": "move", "args": {"by": "lines", "forward": true, "extend": true} },

    { "keys": ["ctrl+alt+j"], "command": "move", "args": {"by": "words", "forward": false} },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+alt+l"], "command": "move", "args": {"by": "word_ends", "forward": true} },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+shift+alt+j"], "command": "move", "args": {"by": "words", "forward": false, "extend": true} },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+shift+alt+l"], "command": "move", "args": {"by": "word_ends", "forward": true, "extend": true} },

    { "keys": ["ctrl+,"], "command": "move_to", "args": {"to": "bol", "extend": false} },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+."], "command": "move_to", "args": {"to": "eol", "extend": false} },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+shift+,"], "command": "move_to", "args": {"to": "bol", "extend": true} },
    { "keys": ["ctrl+shift+."], "command": "move_to", "args": {"to": "eol", "extend": true} }
]
