>             Project: Groovy
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: Groovysh
>            Reporter: Thibault Kruse
>            Assignee: Pascal Schumacher
>             Fix For: 2.5.0-alpha-1

>
> groovysh can be started using a -cp option to use a given classpath. (BTW, 
> the option is missing from the docs at http://groovy.codehaus.org/Groovy+Shell
> However it is rather cumbersome to use this mechanism to start groovysh to 
> e.g. use a more convenient xml parser or such.
> So I can think of some solutions:
>  * add an option to use the latest of all libraries in ~/.groovy/grapes
>  * add an option to use specific grapes on startup, which would download 
> those if necessary and then put them on the classpath
>  * provide a virtual environment tool that sets the classpath according to a 
> definition file defining the grapes to be used.
> Thoughts?
