@futurebird@sauropods.win Now that is raising an interesting question. Why did the language I learned computers with call it the equivalent of "enter", rather than return? What exactly does that refer to? Return is about carriage returns, but whatever typewriter mechanism was "enter"? edit: If this is correct, then it really is about data or instruction entry and doesn't refer to anything other than a computer. Huh.
