Is there a key binding that moves the cursor to the last character in a buffer? I'm asking because I often find myself at a point other than the last character, where I want to be, in the interactive-shell.
C-end (and M-> and another in default) runs command end-of-buffer (into simple.el), which moves cursor to the end of the buffer. With numeric argument, for example, C-u 4 C-end, moves point to 4/10 from the end of the accessable part. With narrowed buffer moves point into the narrowed path of the buffer.
You could find all the keybindings for function with C-h f end-of-buffer RET.

And
(goto-char (1- (point-max)))do the same (puts point before the last character). – Konstantin Morenko Jul 26 '16 at 18:47
