>                 Key: MAPREDUCE-609
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-609
>             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: contrib/streaming
>            Reporter: arkady borkovsky
>
> Quite often, the command line for streaming mapper or reducer needs to use 
> one or two levels of quotes.
> This make it inconvenient or impossible to pass the commands in the streaming 
> command line.
> It would be good to have streaming take its specification from a file -- 
> especially as longer streaming commands are not typed in, but are either run 
> from files (shell scripts) or generated by other processors.
> The current work around is to separate files for the mapper command, for the 
> reducer command, and for the streaming command itself.  This works, but is 
> inconvenient and quite error-prone.
> Having just one file with all three would be good.
