   | You can do this in sqlPlus but not in pl/sql.

   pl/sql is run in the database (unless you're using oracle's Form or Report   
   Builder tools to developer GUI apps)   
      
   so, there is no communication with the client tool while PL/SQL is running,   
   hence no prompting   
      
   what is your development environment?
