How can I program the function keys on my MacBook to do a combination of keys (not open an application)?

1

There are other questions similar to this, but not exactly. What I want to do is to reprogram a function key on the MacBook Pro to do other key combinations. Coming from a Windows background, I terribly miss the Home and End keys. Home on a Mac is fn+← and End is fn+→. I want to make a function key do this combination. Is this possible?

You mean you want (for example) F1 be equivalent to Fn ← (thus, Home)? – slhck – 2012-06-20T17:41:28.283

A better match for Windows's Home and End on the Mac is ⌘← and ⌘→, respectively. – Cajunluke – 2012-06-20T20:49:03.267

Look for something like Keyboard Maestro or a more-general-purpose app like Quicksilver or Launchbar.
