-----------------------------------

             Summary: Migrate command line tools to picocli version of CliBuilder
                 Key: GROOVY-8592
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-8592
             Project: Groovy
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: command line processing
    Affects Versions: 2.5.0-rc-3
            Reporter: Remko Popma


The following command line tools use either {{groovy.cli.commons.CliBuilder}} or implicitly use {{groovy.util.CliBuilder}} which delegates to the commons-cli version of CliBuilder:

* groovyConsole (groovy.ui.Console)
* groovydoc (org.codehaus.groovy.tools.groovydoc.Main)
* groovysh (org.codehaus.groovy.tools.shell.Main)

This ticket proposes to use {{groovy.cli.picocli.CliBuilder}} instead, so that all command line tools in the {{bin}} directory of the Groovy distribution show usage help in ANSI colors.
