> Unclear that cqlsh help requires quoating
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-4845
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4845
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Edward Capriolo
>
> For about two weeks I have been under the impression that most of the CQL
> help topics are unimplemented. Maybe I am dense, but I never would have
> guessed I had to quote certain help topics to get help and not others.
> {noformat}
> cqlsh:testks> HELP INSERT;
> Improper HELP command.
> cqlsh:testks> HELP 'INSERT';
> INSERT INTO [<keyspace>.]<tablename>
> ( <colname1>, <colname2> [, <colname3> [, ...]] )
> VALUES ( <colval1>, <colval2> [, <colval3> [, ...]] )
> {noformat}
> Either we should fix cqlsh so we do not need to quote these things, or we
> should actually put the quotes in the help menu which might indicate this to
> someone.
