The CLI, or command line tool (internally known as the console tool),
is currently the primary interface for dispatching Zend_Tool
requests. With the CLI tool, developers can issue tooling requests
inside the "command line windows", also commonly known as a "terminal"
window. This environment is predominant in the *nix environment, but
also has a common implementation in windows with the
cmd.exe, console2 and also with the Cygwin project.
