[jira] [Created] (KAFKA-1564) Replace barrage of bin/*.sh with single cli wrapper

Andrew Otto created KAFKA-1564:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Replace barrage of bin/*.sh with single cli wrapper
                 Key: KAFKA-1564
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1564
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: packaging
    Affects Versions: 0.8.1.1
            Reporter: Andrew Otto
            Priority: Trivial


Kafka ships with a bunch of shell wrapper scripts in bin/.  These are very small shell wrappers around Java CLIs.  These work, but they are inconvenient to package, and not particularly elegant.

If there is interest, I'd like to upstream this script:

Wikimedia and Yelp are both using it in production, instead of the provided bin/*.sh scripts.
