Hi everyone,
I have a question regarding using "Show Expression".
If you select a cell and then go to "Format" -> Show Expression.
For  example:
Plot[x, {x, 1, 3}]

Selecting the cell and going to format->Show Expression one gets:
Cell[BoxData[
     RowBox[{"Plot", "[",
       RowBox[{"x", ",",
         RowBox[{"{",
           RowBox[{"x", ",", "1", ",", "3"}], "}"}]}],
       "]"}]], "Input"]


Is there a command to get this Expression that one can type in instead
of using the menu bar?

Thanks very much,
