> "beeline --help" displays the help message and returns to beeline prompt.
> The common pattern is to return to the unix prompt. The intention of any
> command help is to relaunch the same command with correct parameters.
> One such output is :
> {quote}
> $ beeline --help
> Usage: java org.apache.hive.cli.beeline.BeeLine
> -u <database url> the JDBC URL to connect to
> -n <username> the username to connect as
> -p <password> the password to connect as
> .....
> Beeline version .. by Apache Hive
> beeline>
> {quote}
> The expected return prompt should be "$" (the unix prompt).
