Use these keys:

    C-f `forward-char'
    C-b `backward-char'
    M-f `forward-word'
    M-b `backward-word'
    C-e `move-end-of-line'
    C-a `move-beginning-of-line'

and so on.

There is a tutorial that helps you get the
basic finger habits going, I think, tho I never
did it myself. `C-h t' seems to start it.
