---------------------------------
Activate this issue, [~twalthr] What is your current thinking? In the Linux
shell, multiple lines of input can be supported with "\". Of course, in the
Flink SQL client, we can use "|". Also, do you mean that we also need to
support the execution of SQL scripts?
> Allow passing multi-line input to SQL Client CLI

> We should support {{flink-cli < query01.sql}} or {{echo "INSERT INTO bar
> SELECT * FROM foo" | flink-cli}} for convenience. I'm not sure how well we
> support multilines and EOF right now. Currenlty, with the experimental {{-u}}
> flag the user also gets the correct error code after the submission, with
> {{flink-cli < query01.sql}} the CLI would either stay in interactive mode or
> always return success.
> We should also discuss which statements are allowed. Actually, only DDL and
> {{INSERT INTO}} statements make sense so far.
