Description

I'm in love with opencode! However, the editing experience for writting prompts (which is an essential piece of such a CLI) is very bad because a bunch of keyboard shortcuts don't work.

• I can't enter a new line. shift+enter submits, ctrl+enter submits. ctrl+j is a default shortcut in VSCode. For every other CLI (e.g. codex), ctrl+enter inserts a new line.
  Related issues: shift+enter keybinding not working #1505, Line breaks do not work any more in the latest version #4189
• I can't navigate fast across a prompt (e.g. I want to edit a part of the prompt way ealier or way latter than where I am right now) and need to keep pressing "left" / "right" for a while:
  • I can't jump to the previous / next word. ctrl+left and ctrl+right don't work while the standard is to jump before / after word.
    Related issues: ctrl + arrow key no longer moves word-to-word #1975, add ctrl+left/right to navigate by word #3090,
  • I can't jump to the beginning / end of the prompt. ctrl+pageup and ctrl+pagedown scroll the conversation, instead of the standard jump to beginning / end of text.
    Related issues: Standard keyboard cursor navigation (Home/End key, ctrl+left/right key) #2649
• I can't delete the word just after with ctrl+suppr. It deletes everything (before and after!!). The standard is ctrl+delete to delete the word before (it works) and ctrl+suppr to delete the word after. It doesn't work.

There are already a lot of issues on this subject, but they don't seem to be worked on at all, while it seems to be a very important matter. The single biggest reason I'm looking for alternatives to opencode is because the editing experience is so bad right now.

Context: I'm on Ubuntu and I use opencode in a terminal opened in VSCode.
