Its a horrible trade off, but there are not very many ways to handle it.

The reason its there is because its a milti line control, and there are two
things that the enter key should do:

Put a carriage return into the multi line edit control
Execute the contents of the edit control.

The typical way of handling this is to make one of then ctrl+return, and the
other one just return. I just picked ctrl+enter for execution, and the enter
key to add a line. Perhaps a Go button that is clickable would be good that
also has the keyboard shortcut "ctrl+enter" included in its tool tip.
