Eric Evans commented on CASSANDRA-3010:
---------------------------------------

Another argument for non-python cqlsh is that cqlsh given from datastax
wouldn't even start on windows due to the "readline" pypi package not being
available for windows.

readline's inclusion should be conditional on the platform (and/or availability
of that module) then. That's something that should happen either way. See
CASSANDRA-3131.

> Key: CASSANDRA-3010
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3010
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Tools
> Reporter: Jonathan Ellis
> Assignee: Pavel Yaskevich
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.0
>
>
> We need a "real" CQL shell that:
> - does not require installing additional environments
> - includes "show keyspaces" and other introspection tools
> - does not break existing cli scripts
> I.e., it needs to be java, but it should be a new tool instead of replacing
> the existing cli.
