Andrzej Bialecki  commented on HADOOP-222:
------------------------------------------

Other things that I would love to see added to DFSShell (to make it more shell-like). They are not such a big deal to implement, but they would increase the usefulness of this class tremendously (note: this is orthogonal to the issue of using Commons CLI, which I'd love to see too):

* globbing and multi-argument cp/mv/rm/ls, using the standard shell metacharacters

* interactive mode: ability to issue several commands in the same session, while keeping track of the context (such as pwd)

* scripts: nothing fancy, just the ability to execute several commands recorded in a text file.

The scriptability and interactive mode, and a host of other useful features we can throw in cheaply by using Rhino (http:// www.mozilla.org/rhino/shell.html).

Set replication from dfsshell
