That’s definitely possible in Python. Maybe not if you’re using the simplest text editor. But regardless of whether it’s NVIM or Visual Studio Code, you can easily jump to the end of a line, press Return, and the code will be inserted with

Good idea! From Wikipedia: „As of early March 2024, it consists of over 6,000 mass-produced small satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO)[5] that communicate with designated ground transceivers. Nearly 12,000 satellites are planned to be deploy
