Enable or disable Press Enter to send
Zulip supports configuring whether the Enter key on your keyboard sends a message that you are composing.
By default, the Enter (or Return) key simply adds a blank line to
the message when the Press Enter to send checkbox is
disabled. This is great if you want to write multi-line messages that
include blank lines, which is much more common in Zulip than in other
chat products. In this default configuration, you can send a message
from the keyboard with Ctrl+Enter.
However, if you check the Press Enter to send checkbox in the
compose box, Zulip sends your message when you press Enter (or
Return) on your keyboard, and Ctrl+Enter will produce a newline.
Whether or not the Press Enter to send option is enabled, pressing
Shift + Enter inserts a new line in your message.
