FEATURE: push commands

Commands to go to the end of the line and insert some sort of symbol, relative to the language being coded in may be quite useful. For example for python, the following command may be quite useful,

push comma:
     edit.line_end()
     insert(",")
     key(enter)

This sort of command can be especially useful for languages like C, where brackets need to be commonly inserted at the end of lines and where semicolons are inserted at the end of statements.

Just wondering if this seems like a good idea or better for users to implement for their specific use cases.

Going back through issues, and looks like this one dropped off the radar. I see also the discussion got fairly off topic.

• Is it worth capturing some of the off-topic discussion into one or more other issues?
• Shall we file a PR for the actual requested feature

Fwiw, I have a version of this code, using the term “patch”, eg “patch colon”: https://github.com/pokey/pokey_talon/blob/c4bfc67e2920aa4f6093335942d90fa2392bd6e4/text/symbols.talon#L5-L10

Oh, vim. Could potentially use a custom action here, defaulted to line start/end for most editors, that vim et al could override to enter insertion mode as well…
