Minor Usability Suggestion: Alaso accept "Shift-Return/Enter" for multi-line prompts in CLI #1143

Issue

Could we add in Aider CLI Shift-Enter/Return as an accepted multi-line return-chararcter, in addition of Meta-Enter ?

Currently, META-Enter must to be pressed for multi-line inputs in Aider CLI.

Unfortunately, in popular AI-chats like ChatGPT.com and Claude.ai Meta-Enter, Meta-Enter sends off the command. They use SHIFT-Enter/Return for multi-line inputs.

And in Aider, SHIFT-Enter sends off the command.

Thus it's user-error-prone, and requires extra-concentration on syntax instead of content to do multi-line prompts in Aider and in ChatGPT and Claude.ai....

Version and model info

Aider v0.51.1
