When one issues a command that does not exist in the terminal, it results in:

The program 'programname' is not installed. You can install it by typing:

sudo apt-get install programname

Is there any shortcut by which one does not have to retype the 'sudo apt-get install programname' line?

There is none by default, but it is not so hard to define one:

alias ii='sudo apt-get install'

You can then just call

ii !!

For more information, read man bash on aliases and history.
