I recently discovered the function 'verbatim input', shortcut M-V

This function is very useful for adding keybindings to the resource
file.  Maybe that's it's main purpose?  However, I don't recall seeing
a tip in the nano user manual to use the function.  I was trying to
reassign Home and End, but couldn't figure it out.  I don't think the
output from 'verbatim input' correctly matches the required binding.
If any knows how to bind Home and End, please share how.
