I'm not sure in which part of the forum to post this (as this is not really code related).
I used to be able to do this until very recently. Now when I try to paste several lines at once I get the error message:
Being able to paste several lines at once is quite convenient when testing ideas and code snippets, especially since if anything goes wrong you get to investigate directly your variables etc. I feel like I really need this feature, pasting line by line is very time consuming and using trick such as putting everything in a big string and calling exec also feels cumbersome.
Is there some configuration to change this? Is this version related?
For a little of context: I'm using Python on Linux.

Quote:SyntaxError: multiple statements found while compiling a single statementMy current version of Python is 3.9.0 which might be the version where this behaviour changed. I tried to search the internet about this and it looked like you were never meant to be able to paste several lines at once on the console...?
