See:

http://hcs.harvard.edu/~jrus/Site/Cocoa%20Text%20System.html

For example, to implement ^u to clear the line, create the following  
text file:

~/Library/KeyBindings/DefaultKeyBinding.dict

with contents below:

{
         "^u"    = ("moveToBeginningOfLine:", "deleteToEndOfLine:");
}

Cheers,

Demitri
