I am pleased to announce SQLLine release 1.6.0.
This is the most colorful and interactive SQLLine ever! Upgrading to jline3 and improved dialect support allowed us to add syntax highlighting, line continuation and multi-line editing. There are new commands !rerun, !/ and !reset, new properties colorScheme, escapeOutput, maxHistoryRows, maxHistoryFileRows, mode, prompt, rightPrompt,strictJdbc, useLineContinuation, version, and improvements to existing commands.
This release requires Java version 8 or higher. (Since the previous release, we have dropped support for JDK 1.6 and 1.7.)
WARNING: Between version 2 and 3, jline changed the format of its history file. After this change, you may need to remove your history file (~/.sqlline/history) or provide a --historyfile argument before SQLLine will start successfully.
