Shouldn't cqlsh have an option for no formatting and no headers?

[Kevin Burton <bu...@spinn3r.com>]

I do this all the time with mysql… dump some database table to an output
file so that I can use it in a script.

but cqlsh insists on formatting the output.

there should be an option for no headers and no whitespace formatting of
the results.

I mean I can work around it for now… but it's not going to be fun to always
post process the output.

cqlsh isn’t designed for dumping data. I think you want COPY http://www.datastax.com/documentation/cql/3.0/cql/cql_reference/copy_r.html
