Abstract
A method for presenting output returned by a command-line interface is disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method submits, by way of a command-line interface (CLI), a command to retrieve a list of resources. The method further submits, in association with the command, an indicator to compress the list. In response to receiving the command and indicator, the method retrieves the list of resources and compresses the list such that resources with identical attributes are presented as a single tuple in the list. Such a tuple may, in certain embodiments, identify the resources with identical attributes as a range of resources and/or as a comma delimited list of resources. The tuple may also, in certain embodiments, identify how many resources with identical attributes are represented by the tuple. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.
