-------------------------------------

Paul,
First, thanks for your feedback and interest, I was really afraid that jelly 
folks are dying out!

Now here is what I did:
- grabbed the jelly-tags-interaction code from svn, build a jar and put it in 
my local maven repo
- in the console plugin, changed the jelly-tags-interaction dependency to 
1.1-SNAPSHOT and added a dependency on jline 0.9.0
- installed the plugin - voila

I ran a couple of standard goals (jar, test, site..) in console mode and 
verified that history and tab completion works as described above (great!).
I don't know what other 'goodies' are being referred to, I am not familiar with 
the jline library.

My system setup: Linux FC3, JDK 1.4.2_10, maven-1.1-beta-3 (current development 
version).

Cheers,
Lukas

>      Project: Jelly
>         Type: Improvement

>  Environment: I've tested this in windows with and without cygwin.
>     Reporter: Ryan Christanson
>     Priority: Minor

>
> I've attached a patch to the commons-jelly-tags-interaction jar. This
> patch makes it so the interaction task will try to use jline:
> http://jline.sourceforge.net/
> Jline makes it so a java console will have tab completion, and
> history, and other goodies.
> This is great, because the maven-console plugin uses the
> commons-jelly-tags-interaction jar. So if you update the
> commons-jelly-tags-interaction jar, and then tell the maven console
> plugin to use the new jar, then your maven console will have history,
> and tab completion.
> I've set it up to remember all of the commands typed in any console,
> further it uses that history as the tab completion source - so you can
> tab complete past commands.
> I've tested this in windows and it works great, but in windows with
> cygwin, it doesn't do the fancy completion, but still works.
> By the way, in windows, jline's lib doesn't support arrows for
> history, so use CONTROL+P and CONTROL+N.
> Its possible that there might be a better way to integrate jline into
> this lib, i've just done what looked like the quickest way to get it
> working so my maven console would have history and tab completion.
> Maybe this feature could be enabled with a tag attribute?
