I don't know what you mean by "using screen". You cannot use the wildcard
asterisk in the query afaik. You can query a directory of files, but I

file unless I used

Renaming the file to .json.gz will work with the default dfs storage

Assaf,
If you want to use Drill as a Server vs Embedded mode, you may be better off to
install ZK (Zookeeper) on the node (assuming you run Linux) and then just run
Drill as a single node cluster/distributed mode. Opens up your options to scale
to multiple nodes easily in the future as well.
