Closes #5346. Most terminals send the same byte sequence for `Enter` and `Shift+Enter` by default, so the application can't tell them apart — this is a terminal protocol limitation, not something Hermes can paper over. But terminals that implement the Kitty keyboard protocol (Kitty / foot / WezTerm / Ghostty by default; iTerm2 / Alacritty / VS Code terminal / Warp once the protocol is enabled) DO emit a distinct sequence for `Shift+Enter`: - `\x1b[13;2u` — Kitty / CSI-u, modifier=2 - `\x1b[27;2;13~` — xterm modifyOtherKeys=2 Stock prompt_toolkit doesn't have the CSI-u sequence in its `ANSI_SEQUENCES` table at all, and it maps the modifyOtherKeys variant to plain `Keys.ControlM` (Enter) — i.e. it strips the Shift modifier, which is the bug users actually hit on iTerm2 and friends. This PR adds `hermes_cli/pt_input_extras.install_shift_enter_alias()`, called once at CLI startup from `cli.py`, which inserts/overwrites those sequences in `ANSI_SEQUENCES` so they decode to `(Keys.Escape, Keys.ControlM)` — the same key tuple `Alt+Enter` produces. The existing Alt+Enter newline handler (`@kb.add('escape', 'enter')` in `cli.py`) then fires unchanged, so there is no new keybinding to register and no behavioral change for terminals that don't emit the distinct sequences. Files ===== * `hermes_cli/pt_input_extras.py` — new module hosting the helper. Lives outside `cli.py` so it's importable in tests without dragging in the full CLI runtime (which depends on `fire`, `rich`, etc.). * `cli.py` — calls `install_shift_enter_alias()` once at module import. Wrapped in try/except so prompt_toolkit version drift can't break CLI startup. * `tests/cli/test_cli_shift_enter_newline.py` — 6 tests: - registration of all three byte sequences - overwrite of stock prompt_toolkit's broken modifyOtherKeys mapping - idempotency - parser equivalence: CSI-u Shift+Enter == Alt+Enter - parser equivalence: modifyOtherKeys Shift+Enter == Alt+Enter - plain Enter remains a single key (submit), distinct from the two-key Alt+Enter / Shift+Enter tuple * `website/docs/user-guide/cli.md` — keybinding table updated; new "Shift+Enter compatibility" subsection with a per-terminal status table noting macOS Terminal / stock Windows Terminal cannot distinguish the keystroke at the protocol level. * `website/docs/getting-started/quickstart.md`, `website/docs/guides/tips.md` — short mention pointing readers at the full compatibility note in `cli.md`. Tested ====== pytest tests/cli/test_cli_shift_enter_newline.py # 6 passed Live-tested by triggering `\x1b[13;2u` against the running Vt100Parser (see test). Not exercised in a real terminal end-to-end because that requires a Kitty-protocol-capable host; the test exercises the parser path that drives the live terminal too. |
