Is there any chance to make this suggestion customizable? Some terminal emulators don't support meta keys + enter combinations and it may be confusing for some people

[WASasquatch]

Yes. But shift+enter is standard for many.

It's not standard for terminal. I explored this and the way to do it makes input broken across new lines, and can't hop back to previous line. Though I may have simply not implemented it right. But seems I can see why this is a web thing, and not a terminal thing.

ALT+Enter is standart to many, but not Shift+Enter. this should be configurable

Muscle Memory Mayhem: Accidental Submissions in Codex Terminal (Shift+Enter)

I'm used to ChatGPT (web) and Gemini (AI Studio) where Shift+Enter (and often just Enter) creates a new line in my prompts.
Much like the box I am typing this message into at the moment...

When I switch to the Codex terminal, I instinctively hit Shift+Enter for a new line, but it submits the prompt instead! This means I'm constantly sending half-finished prompts.

Since the latest versions enables using shift + enter, let us close this issue. For other related feedback in this thread, opening a new issue would be appreciated.

On Windows (WSL) inside VSCode terminal Shift+Enter is sending the prompt. CTRL+J also doesn't work, that is the shortcut to hide the Terminal panel. Probably the issue should be ropened.

You can add a new line with Alt + Enter (on linux at least)

[dkarelov]

Just rebind this in Windows Terminal itself:

Open WIndows Terminal settings, then settings.json.

Add to "actions": [...]:

{
  "command": { "action": "sendInput", "input": "\u000A" },
  "keys": "shift+enter"
}

Press Save. It works now.
