Helps prevent sending partial messages due to accidental 'enter' presses.
Essential for users who send long messages and need 'enter' for new lines.

Slack has now implemented a similar feature, making the extension redundant for some.
Possible keyboard layout issues for users on Mac or Apple devices.

Slack's native options are lacking and do not meet user needs.

Recent reviews

Thanks for filling this gap while we waited for #slack to stop being slack and implement it natively. Now we can got to: Preferences --> Advanced --> Input options, and then tick "Show send button" after doing this, and without a restart, ctrl+enter sends your message.

Did not work for me. Slack now has a preference in the advanced setting which duplicates this ... and adds a send button.

Похоже что создатели шлака, юзают "макбучную" или эпловскую раскладку. На которой под мезинцем левой руки клавиша "fn". Поэтому им даже в голову не могло прийти сделать отправку сообщения ctrl+enter. Думаю что они даже enter не смогут найти т.к. на их клавах он называеться return. А Сатори Таканами, юзает правильную раскладку, спасибо за это расширение!
