jline with maven console
Hi ,
i was going through the documentation for maven console goal, and really
like the jline tool which remembers history of maven commands and tab
completion for maven console. Is anybody using it in the project? Here
is what the maven console documentation says:
" It is possible to add completion and history to the console, however
it requires the use of an external library. This library is licensed
under the LPGL, and so cannot be used in the console by default, but can
be downloaded from JLine <http://jline.sf.net>".
I like this thing and would like to include in the documentation on "how
to use maven" for this project. Would there be any other issues in using
jline apart from the fact that the user would have to explicitly
download it and add it to the repository.

Brett,
You might want to mention the bash wrapper you showed me that does
hinting in a standard bash shell.

On another note, we convinced the author to relicense new releases under the
ASL, so it could be included by default in future - we're using it in Maven
2.0 but noticing some quirks under Cygwin so haven't introduced it to the
stable codebase yet.

I think this is a good thing to document. When we get the "how to..."
going this will be good to add.
