 Elevator pitch

 Myself and Peary Chiu have created a lightweight utility for
 administering Tomcat from the command line in our copious amounts of
 free time on the weekends.
 This is a very rough utility, but we wanted a command line
 administration utility that made it very easy and quick to debug a
 Tomcat server via JMX.

 We are looking to solicit feedback from the community on this utility.
 Really it could be used for any application server, but because of
 Tomcat's relevance and our familiarity with it, we prefer to offer to
 this audience.

 The reason we are creating this utility is because we didn't feel that
 jconsole or other utilities such as jmxsh were not swift enough or
 user friendly enough for troubleshooting Tomcat in a production
 environment. We have nothing against these projects, we just had a
 different preference for this tool.

 Needs to be improved

 We are aware that it needs some features, such as:
 - #1 Documentation
 - Easier navigation
 - Bash-style auto completion (if accomplished, could also benefit the
 Jython project)
 - Compile Jython code to Java classes

 We are working on getting these problems addressed.

 To our knowledge it works without issue with Jython 2.5.1+.
 (http://sourceforge.net/projects/jython/files/)

 What we'd appreciate

 Feel free to reply back with bugs and enhancement requests.
 We believe this will eventually be a useful, lightweight
 administration utility for Tomcat.
 We believe that by putting this out to the community early, we can
 address the needs of the community for such a utility, if at all, and
 have the community give some feedback on their general thoughts on the
 project.

Hi,

I have some interest in this type of thing: am working on a pure Java
CLI, but it's probably more simple than this looks.  I'll give yours a
whirl this evening.
