Cycle to previous batch with Shift+Enter #18

Closed joelpt closed 11 years ago

Enter can currently be used to cycle forwards through the batches when there are multiple batches on screen. It would be helpful if Shift+Enter could be used to cycle backwards in the same manner.

Unfortunately, the current way of getting input from the user (show_input_panel) is really limited in what keystroke/input information I get from the user. I only get what is typed in the box, if it's zero length (and the cancel method isn't called), I "know" it was the enter key. This means that I don't know if shift was also held down when enter was hit.

I've been thinking about refactoring things to use a context rather than the input panel at the top as it'd also solve #13. It would allow me to gather more complicated input like shift+enter. Not sure how much time it'll take but I'll do a spike to see if it's a viable replacement for what I've got now.
