Actually, Micorsoft Excel 1.0 and forward has always used both the ReturnKey and EnterKey as two distinctive keyboard codes since MS introduced the features of textboxes on a spreadsheet that could contain returns (word processing linefeeds). Yes, it was a Mac-only version and shipped with the first Macs (1984) Of course, Windows wasn't part of the landscape, but when it came out, 3.0 had Excel as one of the apps. Now, on Windows or Mac, a single cell in Excel can do word wrap and line feeds. These line feeds are not the same as hitting the ReturnKey on either the Mac or Windows. Then along came desktop publishing and blurred the definitions of line feeds, embedded tabs, and proprietary formats for text, text blocks, page layout, graphic formats, and printing commands.
