Sean Owen commented on MAHOUT-185:
----------------------------------

I like the idea. Is there any elaboration or movement on this?

I wonder to what extent we can make every "thing" in Mahout a command-line 
program? For example the CF bits aren't quite like that. Well, you could make 
about 15 different sets of args for the 15 different variations of a CF 
algorithm. Or you could make some general framework for taking a class with 
main() and args, but then we approach just reproducing "java". 

And then there are the Hadoop-related versions of everything, which already 
provide a "Job" class or "Driver" class to run it from the command line. It 
might be undesirable to duplicate this.

> Currently, Each algorithm has a different point of entry. At its too 
> complicated to understand and launch each one.  A mahout shell script needs 
> to be made in the bin directory which does something like the following
> mahout classify -algorithm bayes [OPTIONS]
> mahout cluster -algorithm canopy  [OPTIONS]
> mahout fpm -algorithm pfpgrowth [OPTIONS]
> mahout taste -algorithm slopeone [OPTIONS] 
> mahout misc -algorithm createVectorsFromText [OPTIONS]
