MeshChat - minor enhancement.
A few months ago I requested an enhancement to allow Ctl-Enter to be used instead of having to click on the SEND radio button.  It was promptly implemented (thanks!)

But nobody knows it's available.  Suggest putting text  "Ctl-Enter = SEND"  directly to the right of the SEND radio button.

Thanks.

Regression?
I just noticed that in the latest version, Ctl-Enter no longer works.  A regression maybe?

Ctrl-Enter for send on Mesh Chat

I just upgraded to Mesh Chat 1.0 on 2 of our nodes and noticed the send button is completely gone! As I was pulling my hair out I came across the above post regarding using Ctrl-Enter. This thankfully worked. Yes it would be nice to have that displayed on the chat screen somewhere.

More on Sending...
I did some more testing, and discovered that using my MeshChat 1.0 install (on RPI2):

Ctl-Enter:
doesn't work on Firefox but does work on Chrome

The Send button:
Shows and works on both Firefox and Chrome

Firefox version 50.1.0 on Fedora Linux 25/Plasma
Chrome version 55.0.2883.87 on Fedora Linux 25/Plasma

Update concerning send button
I created a separate zone for our Mesh Chat, deleted the message files on both of our installations which had gotten quite large and contained irrelevant messages and channels, and lo and behold the send button re-appeared! Ctrl-Enter still works too. I'm using a Pi for one install of Mesh Chat (with the api on the attached node) and another node on our mesh also has an install. I had connected with a different area mesh the other day and about 50K of messages and 18 channels had migrated to our system. I'm using Internet Explorer since the gui for our cameras requires an ActiveX plug-in.
