WLST easeSyntax

Who works with WLST know it’s pretty boring to natigate to MBeans, because whenever necessary to put in parentheses () commands and quotation marks ‘ ‘. When we forget, need to retype the whole command again.
I found a command that helps a lot when it comes to navigate in MBean tree, it eliminates the need for parentheses and quotation marks.
After entering the WLST, type:

wls:/xpto_domain/serverConfig> easeSyntax()

wls:/xpto_domain/serverConfig> ls
dr– AdminConsole

dr– SelfTuning
dr– Servers
dr– ShutdownClasses
dr– SingletonServices

wls:/xpto_domain/serverConfig> cd Servers
wls:/xpto_domain/serverConfig/Servers> ls
dr– AdminServer
dr– WLS1_MSWS1
dr– WLS1_MSWS2

wls:/xpto_domain/serverConfig/Servers> cd WLS1_MSWS1
wls:/xpto_domain/serverConfig/Servers/WLS1_MSWS1> cd Log
wls:/xpto_domain/serverConfig/Servers/WLS1_MSWS1/Log> cd ..
wls:/xpto_domain/serverConfig/Servers/WLS1_MSWS1> cd Machine
wls:/xpto_domain/serverConfig/Servers/WLS1_MSWS1/Machine> ls
dr– app1wsmachine1

Not tested within python scripts, only browsing the tree Mbean.
