Multiline editing #3193
Description
It seems not supported.
SHIFT+ENTER
CTRL+ENTER
Don't create a newline, only execute the prompt. Most chat based interfaces use SHIFT+ENTER to insert a newline.
It would be nice if OpenCode have this feature that is de facto standard.
a workaround is to copy/paste the newline.

We support shift + enter, some terminals send it differently than others tho. I think our capturing of it will be improved soon we are rewriting the tui to be more compatible everywhere.
This is a duplicate of #1505
But can you tell me what emulator you are using @jcubic

I use Xfce terminal, which uses VTE library from GNOME. If something doesn't work as expected on your end, you can report an issue on their Gitlab, you can also ask question if something is not working.
They were helpful when I reported an issue with flickering in some CLI applications.

Same issue here.
I'm having issues when working within a tmux session my setup is:
When I run opencode in a regular Alacritty panel it works, if I start a new Tmux session the same keybidding doesn't work.
Hope this extra info helps.

@Tmeister I don't use tmux but I think someone provided a work around in linked issue

Claude code allows backslash at line end to simulate shift+enter, if the terminal is crappy. I use it a lot with terminal + tmux setups. OpenCode could allow backslash multi line too.

Try to add this on your tmux.conf
