author examples as .py files?

thanks for the great package - its really easy to use and useful.

I was wondering if it could be possible to author the examples as python files rather than markdown files with python code blocks?
... because writing the python code in a .md without the benefit of code-completion etc. is a little painful

maybe:

• by embedding a python file into the markdown examples file at runtime (<< include myexample.py >>)
• or perhaps as a %format python file with %[markdown] blocks?

or maybe you already have a way to avoid this irritation?

many thanks

Start by reviewing how pytest-examples currently discovers and processes Python code in Markdown examples. Clarify whether the goal is standalone .py authoring, embedding Python files, or another format, then define tests that demonstrate the chosen workflow and confirm existing Markdown examples still work.
