Csaba Ringhofer commented on IMPALA-1096:
-----------------------------------------

The same formatting can be achieved by setting the delimiter to "\n" (this is 
done by starting impala shell with the following arguments: -B 
--output_delimiter="\n" )
Currently the delimiter can be only set at startup, but there is already a 
ticket (IMPALA-1624) about making this and some other options interactively 
settable.

> In the MySQL command-line, replacing the final ';' with "\G" formats the 
> output results with every column on a separate row. This vertical output is 
> especially useful when querying one specific row from a table with many 
> columns (for directly looking at it or `grep`ing through the result).
> This is presented in pages like [this
