Rohit,

Can I get the CLI only without going through the whole source code maven 
install? Is it part of any RPM?

Thanks
ilya

Checkout latest code. Few changes to share:

- All lowercase now
- Tab tab over verbs to see list of params for that api, example list users 
<tab><tab>
- This needs improvement but help string, using --help: list user --help
- Caching to speedup runtime
- Color and Parsing fixes

Last, I'm now able to get the doc strings for each attribute/param, will see 
this tomorrow.

Need your help, just incase you want to contribute, these are the TODOs:

- search over history
- fix parsing
- doc strings for parameters
- testing for various kinds of apis (I'm able to deploy a zone with this, but 
needs testing)
- unicode char monkey, used in prompt may mess up history searching and text 
display


Regards.
