> The geode-for-redis README.md is more complicated than it needs to be.
> When starting a server for redis in gfsh I recommend just the following:
>  
> {noformat}
> start server --geode-for-redis-port=<port> --disable-default-server=true
> {noformat}
> No need for --name. No need for --geode-for-redis-bind-address. No need for --locators.
> I suggest the "--disable-default-server=true" so that it will not also try to listen for geode clients on 40404 which can cause a failure if that port is already in use. This also prepares the way for the second server they start which will not need "--server-port=0". We don't need to tell them "If any of the options..." right after the start server. This is not a reference manual. Just tell them how to start the server.
> Also the README.md should mention that gfsh supports tab completion which can help with some of these long option names.
> The section that tells them to run redis-cli only needs to mention "-c -p <port>". No need for the "-h" since the server is listening on all local addresses. It should tell them to run redis-cli on the same machine as gfsh. Also it should mention (for rookies) that redis-cli is part of the native redis distribution which they may need to install. It does not come with geode. Also the README.md does not need to mention "<geodeForRedisPassword>" in the "Replace" sentence.
