Prompting user twice on the same line

Thanks sea, It gave me some ideas but couldn't use them for what I'm looking for.
What I'm trying to do is to enter automatically the plus sign + after typing NUM1 and pressing enter. So the user would enter just NUM1 and NUM2.
This way, user will enter NUM1, press enter, and with this last action the plus sign + will be placed automat. right after it and at the same time will allow the user to enter the second number NUM2.
Hope I made myself clear.
Thanks
