IF technology has [can ever] made fully automated formatting viable,
 THEN it's long over-due to program by just filling-in <parameters>,
to a fully syntax-aware tool.

This, particularly so, for IT people who need to cover many languages,
and shouldn't need to be concerned if semicolon is the statement
terminator or separator.

I'm of course failing to distinguish between trainees [who must be
punished by dumb repetition] & users?

Good for you. Some of us are pressed for time and want to leverage
collaboration [avoiding duplication of effort].

BTW rPi isn't a hit without good reason: it's a full PC in a cigarette
packet [remember those?]. And yes, it's mobile-phone power
connector is delicate; but you unplug the power, at the other end.
