IDE 2.0.0-rc9.3 serial console text entry

Is there a way to allow for carriage return to be used, without having to use the ⌘, or another modifier key on other OSs?

Also historically, you could 'up arrow' through the recently sent commands, to send the same one a second time, or even go further back in history.

I write SCPI devices and have to send the same command several times in succsession.

Please open an issue about this missing capability on GitHub:

I already searched for an existing issue so you can skip that step.

Since this is a more subtle feature of the Arduino IDE 1.x Serial Monitor, which those less familiar with that application (as is the case with all the Arduino IDE 2.x developers) will not likely know about, I think it is likely to be forgotten during the upcoming reworking of the Arduino IDE 2.x Serial Monitor if it is not formally tracked by the developers.

Thanks @skippyuk!
