## If Shift+Enter submits instead of adding a line

**Who needs to act:** anyone for whom **Shift+Enter *submits*** in MulmoTerminal — equivalently, a bare Enter drops to a new line instead of sending.

Whether Enter submits or inserts a newline is decided by **Claude Code**, from the bytes the terminal sends it — not by MulmoTerminal. Some people rebind Claude Code the other way round, and there the behaviour is reversed.

### How to set it

1. Add this to `~/.mulmoterminal/config.json`:

   ```json
   { "terminalSubmit": "esc-cr" }
   ```

2. **Reload the browser tab** (the keyboard reads the value at page load).
3. **Restart the server** (the phone remote view's send reads it at startup).
4. Check: a bare **Enter** submits, **Shift+Enter** adds a line.

**Almost nobody needs this.** The default `"cr"` is the standard binding, and an invalid value falls back to it, so a typo cannot leave Enter broken.

**Claude sessions only** — shell, codex and command cells always submit with a plain Enter. An IME candidate-confirm Enter is never intercepted.

## More default header buttons

The starter set gained 📁 browse files, 🖥 new terminal here, 🔗 this branch's PR (git repos, only when a PR exists), and 🌐 open on GitHub. **Nothing to configure** — but note that setting `buttons` yourself **replaces the whole default set**.

→ [Configuration → Customizing the header](config.html#header)

## Also

- **File paths in terminal output became links** (1.11.0 later made them open by extension).
- **More scrollback survives a reconnect** (64 KiB → 1 MiB, roughly 1000 lines).
- The zoomed view-toggle no longer covers a cell's ✕ or the Settings button.
- A guide page for the **cross-repo PR/Issue view** → [GitHub](github.html)
