You might want to source() a file with those lines rather than pasting
them to the console. There's just no way you can retroactively insert
text between two already submitted lines.

You can do things like this, though

{cat("?"); a<-readLines(n=1)
"hey"
 b<-paste("t",a,sep="")}

However, there's a catch

> {cat("?"); a<-readLines(n=1)
+ "hey"
+  b<-paste("t",a,sep="")}
?ada
> b
[1] "tada"

Notice that the "hey" doesn't print.
