Well, I know you said no regexps, but it really is dead simple,  
enable the regexp checkbox and then:

     Find: .+
  Replace: «prefix»$0«suffix»

Now hit “Replace All” or hold ⌥ and use the “in Selection”.

Five minutes to make a command that encapsulates the above regexp  
replace (using Dialog.request_string for the prefix/suffix), but  
spending five minutes learning about regexps would be a better  
investment of time ;)
