-if len(sys.argv) < 2:

1. I would prefer {{sqlline.py \[zookeeper_quorum_port\] 
\[optional_sql_file\]}}. I've never see the {{$\[name\]}} notation to indicate 
an optional argument.
2. Nit: there are better ways to create multi-line strings: 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10660435/pythonic-way-to-create-a-long-multi-line-string
3. Nit: provide an argument to {{sys.exit()}} so that the return code isn't 
{{0}}. This was an abnormal exit of the script.

             List<String> argList = Lists.newArrayList(cmdLine.getArgList());
             if (argList.isEmpty()) {
-                usageError("Connection string to HBase must be supplied", 
options);
+                usageError("At least one input file must be supplied", 
options);
             }
{noformat}

This documentation is wrong now, isn't it? The usage says only one file is 
accepted.

> However the zookeeper quorum and the port are available in hbase configs. 
> Phoenix should read these configs from the system instead of having the user 
> supply them every time.
> What we can do is to introduce a keyword "default". If it is specified, 
> default zookeeper quorum and port will be taken from hbase configs. 
> Otherwise, users can specify their own.
