> Hive CLI allows a user to execute a shell command using ! notation. For
> instance, !cat myfile.txt. Being able to execute shell command may be
> important for some users. As a replacement, however, Beeline provides no such
> capability, possibly because ! notation is reserved for SQLLine commands.
> It's possible to provide this using a slightly syntactic variation such as
> !sh cat myfilie.txt.
