I have forgotten to mention the line continuation character "_". A single
expression can always be split by "_", however, several expressions have to be
separated by ";".


(1) -> for i in 1..50 repeat _
     for j in 1..50 | factorial(i+j) < 25 repeat _
    output [i,j]
   [1, 1]
   [1, 2]
   [1, 3]
   [2, 1]
   [2, 2]
   [3, 1]
                                                                   Type: Void
