[jira] [Created] (DRILL-4697) Editing of multi-line queries in sqlline

Matt Keranen created DRILL-4697:
-----------------------------------

             Summary: Editing of multi-line queries in sqlline
                 Key: DRILL-4697
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-4697
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: Client - CLI
    Affects Versions: 1.6.0
            Reporter: Matt Keranen
            Priority: Minor


Being used to the PostgreSQL psql client, editing multiline queries in sqlline seems difficult. Each line of an unterminated (semicolon) query appears to be a separate history entry, thus uneditable.

The ability to up-arrow to bring the entire previous query would be very helpful, or the option to send the query text to an external shell editor (Vi).
