Change Return key behaviour to never evaluate a cell when pressed without modifiers #28

Closed rcarmo closed 6 years ago

rcarmo commented 6 years ago

As outlined in the documentation, pressing the Return key at the end of a cell submits the cell for evaluation.

I've found this to be at odds with the behaviour of other Workbook/notebook interfaces I use regularly (i.e., Jupyter and DataBricks/Zeppelin), and to be an annoyance when I'm iterating on a cell and am trying to add a newline to insert a new instruction.

Given that I've been using notebook UIs since Mathematica came along, I would suggest that the expectation that Return by itself does not evaluate a cell is not just an ingrained habit, but a hallowed tradition of sorts.

Thanks for filing! Would you mind moving this to https://github.com/Microsoft/workbooks ? That is the main repository for Workbooks. xamarin/workbooks is just for samples.

If you don't get a chance I can move it for you later today.
