<h1>Editor Preferences</h1>
<p>The Editor preferences page allows you to configure smart caret positioning 
 behavior in the editor. Smart caret positioning determines where the cursor 
 will jump to when certain positioning keys (e.g. Home / End) are pressed.</p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p>The Editor 
 Preferences page is accessed from Window | Preferences | PHP | Editor 
 .</p>
