Unclear It is not confirmed that . now replays the new line correctly, because the code that stores and replays recorded inserts was not examined.
What
Claude Code's input box has an optional vim mode, which lets you edit your prompt with vim-style keys. In insert mode, a new line typed with Return, Enter or Ctrl+J is now recorded as part of the insert. In multiline mode, when the backslash-then-Return shortcut is not turned off, Return also records the backslash that goes with it. Other typed text is recorded as before.
Why
In vim, . repeats your last edit. Repeating an insert that contained a new line should now put the new line back in too.
