Rohit Yadav commented on CLOUDSTACK-545:
----------------------------------------

There are a lot of fields, printing them all in a table won't make sense, what I can implement is something like a selector for every api (like we have in mysql), so you can select and create the output view... example code that prints result as a table:

diff --git a/tools/cli/cloudmonkey/cloudmonkey.py b/tools/cli/cloudmonkey/cloudmonkey.py

> cloudmonkey responses would be more sensible and easier on the eye if they can look tabular similar to the ec2 tools. enhance cloudmonkey to support tabular formatting instead of sequential lists of the response
