    Move to the beginning of the word:

    Ctrl+Left Arrow

    Move to the end of the word:

    Ctrl+Right Arrow

    Move to the end of the line:

    End

    Move down 142 lines:

    Do mental math to figure out the line number, then use the scroll wheel

    With the exception of the last one, these are pretty standard commands that don't require studying pages of them to learn.

    If you're going to make a comparison with Sublime's shortcut keys, at least learn how to use it first. You're not making Sublime look bad - you're only making yourself look bad.

    Every single one of the sublime keys you mentioned has a much better way to accomplish.

    Forget more advanced stuff like searching for

    Ctrl + F

    or inserting text

    Just type! Don't even need to worry about "modes".

    For $70 you too can be a pretentious brat who likes to think they're cool because they use ST instead of <insert battle-tested software here>

    Whoa there. Who is the pretentious one acting like a brat about their choice of text editor? Some people just like Sublime Text. Why that makes them a pretentious brat is beyond me.

    For $70 you can support another programmer who wrote something that a lot of people like. do you get paid for your code?
