Not sure I understand this correctly... is the requirement that you<br>
should be able to type right away without accidentally overwriting the<br>
boilerplate code of the operation? The surrounding block and its<br>
arguments in this case.<br>
<br>
If you just want an expression, why indicate asking for a complete<br>
method text? If you avoid that, the question about ^ or not can be<br>
avoided. Just mention the variable names that can be used in the<br>
prompt. This makes them fix, but is it necessary to be able to change<br>
them?<br>
