My web searches suggest that using the psql command line I'm limited to
moving the cursor one character at a time. Is there a way to use a small

the line?

The PGDG prebuilt packages are built with libreadline.  Thus, if that's how you installed psql, Home, End, Ctrl-Left, Ctrl-Right and Ctrl-w should work.
