Need support for run-time prompt indicator

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

What is the expected output?
Putting a question mark (?) instead of a specific value should prompt the user 
to enter the value at runtime. Places where this could be useful
  a. prompt for a server and database name at runtime
  b. prompt for a file name or folder name at runtime (without using an external module)
     b.1 see if this can be integrated with external module parameters i.e. can we put a question mark as a parameter in a call to an external module and expect excel bricks to take care of the run time prompt. Is this a good idea? (because it would mean that actual ? have to be escaped) Should we put indicate runtime get-values in the command column in some manner?
