the word 'return suggests it goes back to where it came from, when infact it goes down a line and to the left!
surely the 'backspace' keys is more deserving of the moniker 'return', is it not?
At one point the enter and the return keys did different things. You can still see this in some old computer systems.
The enter key was the "action key". The return key just returned the key to the next line.
Now both do both.

Hi,
I am not a new member, but a returning member after about 18 months, in which time I moved away from home and my faith has waned. With the start of ramadhan I am hoping to renew it. Fresh start and all.
