How to ADD New Keyboard Shotcuts

I have Fedora 10, KDE 4.1



The issue: How to ADD new Keyboard shotcuts (C-a, C-b, C-k in
particular, similar to those in emacs: go to beginning of line,
go to the end of line, kill line from cursor on)?



I don't know how to use:

System Settings->Keyboard & Mouse->Standard Keyboard Shortcuts

in order to define such new shortcuts.



From older postings, it seems that the previous software (KControl) was more

powerful in this respect.



Thanks.

maybe i misunderstood your question but if i got you straight, why do you need key combo shortcuts when on your keyboard you have ALREADY the 'end' key which moves the carriage at the end of the text row and the key north of that one to move the carriage at the beginning? they work and you dont need to press multiple keys. pressing the ctrl + left/right-arrow keys you can also move the cursor by steps of one word.
