Research direction

Start by locating the interactive prompt input and its Ctrl+G key handling, then trace how multi-line input is assembled. Check the existing environment handling for $EDITOR; done means Ctrl+G opens the editor for a multi-line prompt and the edited content returns to the prompt.
