Re: about jmxterm - thanks/suggestions

[Jiaqi Guo]

Thanks for the good suggestions. I can make changes for #1 quickly but
you'd have to build from source code in order to use the change.

For #2, the latest code in SVN does tab autocompletion when you select
domain or bean, which I feel is a more engineer friendly way to speed
up typing than selecting a number. Print out beans in domain command
sounds a good idea. In my case I have a ridiculous domain with 80
beans, which fills up the console. Right now you can do "domain xyz &&
beans" to run two commands in one line. Later I could either come up
with some options for domain, or list top 10 beans under domain, or do
which ever makes sense. What do you think?

Best regards

Does -i option do what you need?

java -jar jmxterm-1.0-alpha-1-uber.jar -i ./myscript.txt
