For example, we have this in the error case check:\r\n\r\n```\r\n(Pdb) print(\r\n*** SyntaxError: '(' was never closed\"\r\n```\r\n\r\nAnd it won't be failing anymore as we can close it in the next line. But in general, I believe this feature has more benifits than problems.\r\n\r\nI'll make the PR draft for now and wait for some more discussion on the matter.\n\n\u003c!-- gh-linked-prs --\u003e\n### Linked PRs\n* gh-103125\n\u003c!-- /gh-linked-prs --\u003e\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/gaogaotiantian","@type":"Person","name":"gaogaotiantian"},"datePublished":"2023-03-30T06:39:30.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":3},"url":"https://github.com/103124/cpython/issues/103124"}
