Henry Robinson commented on ZOOKEEPER-386:
------------------------------------------

Portable readline support with Java is a pain. JLine 
(http://jline.sourceforge.net/) does it, and is BSD licensed. Is it worth 
adding a library dependency to the CLI for this feature? 

> improve c and java cli shells

> ------------------------------------------------------------
> Possible improvements:
> Default host list to localhost:2181 when not given.
> Don't print a ton of debug, it looks like both cli_mt and zkCli.sh does this. 
> Make a simple ls that lists subnodes one line at a time and a simple cat that 
> lists only the node content, simple put etc.
> Shell with gnu readline capabilities and tab completion on node names would 
> be a big improvement of usability during testing and debugging.
