Using iTerm2 to moodify and massage commands before executing

Question

I'm looking for a way to work with a long command on a Terminal such as iTerm2.

In the perfect world, I'd have a text box that I can modify then hitting Command+Enter will send it to "execute" - but the editing experience would be more like VSCode than terminals which make it a pain to jump around.

Example

curl 'xxx'
-X 'OPTIONS'
-H 'authority: xxx
-H 'accept: /'
-H 'access-control-request-method: POST'
-H 'access-control-request-headers: content-type'
-H 'origin: xxx'
-H 'user-agent: xxx'
-H 'sec-fetch-mode: cors'
-H 'sec-fetch-site: same-site'
-H 'sec-fetch-dest: empty'
-H 'referer: xxx'
-H 'accept-language: xxx'
-b 'sessionID'='xxx' \ --compressed

UPDATE:

I found this which kind of works but it doesn't show the output.

Since version 3 of iTerm you can use Composer feature.

Use

• Cmd + shift + . = to open the editor window
• Shift + enter = to send the command for execution
