Wow, genius. Ctrl+A is a lifesaver! Most of these are fairly easy with my left hand too, so my right hand can stay on the mouse. To rephrase some of the shortcuts:
Home: Ctrl+A
End: Ctrl+E
Forward One Character: Ctrl+F
Backwards One Character: Ctrl+B
Next Line: Ctrl+N
Previous Line: Ctrl+P
Page Down: Ctrl+V
Forward Delete: Ctrl+D (like Delete)
Backwards Delete: Ctrl+H (like Backspace)
Kill text between Cursor and End of Line: Ctrl+K
Ctrl+U didn't work at all for me.
Ctrl+A: Beginning of line (like Home)
Ctrl+B: Backward one character (like hitting the left arrow)
Ctrl+D: Forward delete (like the Forward Delete button on Macs)
Ctrl+E: End of line (like End)
Ctrl+F: Forward one character (like hitting the right arrow)
Ctrl+H: I'm not entirely sure on this one, but it looks like it just does a right-to-left delete (like the regular delete key on Macs).
Ctrl+K: Kill/remove text between cursor and the end of the line.
Ctrl+N: Next line (like down arrow)
Ctrl+P: Previous line (like up arrow)
Ctrl+U: Remove/delete current line
Ctrl+V: Page down
