just like the title says, not much to it.

    It looks like the cursor will move to beginning/end of line if Home/End is pressed but when you type the cursor is really in the old position.

    As Matju pointed out in a private email, 'pd' actually keeps track of the cursor position, and this patch only moves the cursor position in 'pd-gui', so it just visually moves the cursor, but the typing still happens in the same place.

    Just a quick reminder that this bug is still present in Pd 0.43.2, and also in 0.43.4-extended.
    Would be great to have fixed:
    I've only been using pd for a few weeks (but A LOT), and I'm already starting to unlearn using home and end in all other programs!
