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

             Summary: Describe 'table' output is all on one line, could use 
better formatting
                 Key: HBASE-10082
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10082
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
         Environment: 0.94.2-cdh4.2.1
            Reporter: Maxime C Dumas


If you describe 'table' from the HBase shell, you get an output like this for a 
very simple table:

hbase(main):023:0> describe 'movie'
DESCRIPTION                                                                     
  ENABLED                                     
 {NAME => 'movie', FAMILIES => [{NAME => 'info', DATA_BLOCK_ENCODING => 'NONE', 
B true                                        
 LOOMFILTER => 'NONE', REPLICATION_SCOPE => '0', VERSIONS => '3', COMPRESSION 
=>                                              
 'NONE', MIN_VERSIONS => '0', TTL => '2147483647', KEEP_DELETED_CELLS => 
'false',                                             
  BLOCKSIZE => '65536', IN_MEMORY => 'false', ENCODE_ON_DISK => 'true', 
BLOCKCACH                                             
 E => 'true'}, {NAME => 'media', DATA_BLOCK_ENCODING => 'NONE', BLOOMFILTER => 
'N                                             
 ONE', REPLICATION_SCOPE => '0', VERSIONS => '1', COMPRESSION => 'NONE', 
MIN_VERS                                             
 IONS => '0', TTL => '2147483647', KEEP_DELETED_CELLS => 'false', BLOCKSIZE => 
'6                                             
 5536', IN_MEMORY => 'false', ENCODE_ON_DISK => 'true', BLOCKCACHE => 'true'}]} 
                                              
1 row(s) in 0.0250 seconds

Not only everything is on one row, but also it seems to be limited in width (82 
chars).

I suggest we do a line return on each column family, or format it into a JSON 
(lint) format, or anything more readable!

Thanks!
