Radu Stoica commented on CRAIL-11:
----------------------------------

I like the idea to be able to set parameters from the command line. It would be 
very nice for trying a new parameter value quickly or for scripting.

At the same time, having environment variables in the conf file is also nice to 
have for two reasons at least: a) we can set default parameters such as 
"crail.user $ USER", and b) it is easier to put all environment variables in a 
file than pack everything on the command line.

Spark also allows setting configuration parameters from the command line with 
-conf so having this option would not be surprising. I think Hadoop also allows 
using environment variables so having this would also be similar.
