Add readline information for linux to FAQ
-----------------------------------------
Key: FELIX-841
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-841
Project: Felix
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Documentation
Environment: Linux
Reporter: Steve Lindsay
Priority: Minor
It would be good to have an faq entry like the following added to the felix faq.
Q: How do I enable readline-style behaviour (for example, command history) to
the Felix shell when running on Linux?
A: First, install the jline library (http://jline.sourceforge.net/ or from your
distributions package manager). Add the installed jar to your classpath, then
invoke the Felix shell using the jline ConsoleRunner. For example: java -cp
<jline_path>jline.jar:<felix_path>/felix.jar jline.ConsoleRunner
org.apache.felix.main.Main
This will allow you to use the up-arrow to retrieve previously entered commands.
