Problem
On Mac, when you typed a very long multiline prompt, you usually expect that key-up only switch line for cursor
Instead of this the actual behavior is as follows:
- codewhale forgets what was actually typed by user
- codewhale shows the previous command
If the typed prompt was big enough, it is rather painful to understand that you need to remember it all and retype again
Proposed solution
For if:
- there is a not empty prompt or comand in a composer
- composer contains several lines of text (and not just one)
- cursor is not on the topmost line then instead of switching to prevoius entered message cursor just jumps 1 line up
Use case
In every big enought prompt it will be useful The same is actual also for key-down
Alternatives considered
Current behavior deletes un-entered message
Impact
Rather painful message deletion
