Editing a text file externally and having the same text open in blender does work but isn't that optimal so here are 2 ways you can easily use an external file from blender.
Using the following examples you'll still need textblock in blender to execute, but reference an external file rather then including it directly.
Executing External Scripts

The next example is an equivalent single line version of the script above which is easier to paste into you're code:
.. code-block:: python
__import__('code').interact(locals={k: v for ns in (globals(), locals()) for k, v in ns.items()})
__import__('code').interact(local={k: v for ns in (globals(), locals()) for k, v in ns.items()})
`code.interact` can be added at any line in the script and will pause the script an launch an interactive interpreter in the terminal, when you're done you can quit the interpreter and the script will continue execution.
