Kevin Wilfong commented on HIVE-2530:
-------------------------------------
Ashutosh: I agree that the information can already be viewed via a describe
formatted command, however, for tables with a large number of properties, or
even a large number of columns or large column comments, it becomes difficult
for users to quickly find the property they're looking for. This will help
provide a clean view and ease readability.

> Since table properties can be defined arbitrarily, they should be easy for a
> user to query from the command-line.
> SHOW TBLPROPERTIES tblname;
> ...would show all of them, one per row, key \t value
> SHOW TBLPROPERTIES tblname ("FOOBAR");
> ...would just show the value for the FOOBAR tblproperty.
