<h1>Groovy Shell</h1>

<p>Provides very convenient command-line access to the Groovy language:</p>

<p>Which should look something like this:</p>

<p><img class="confluence-embedded-image" src="/download/attachments/230400684/GroovyShell.png?version=1&amp;modificationDate=1368948104160" data-image-src="/download/attachments/230400684/GroovyShell.png?version=1&amp;modificationDate=1368948104160" data-linked-resource-id="230565092" data-linked-resource-type="attachment" data-linked-resource-default-alias="GroovyShell.png" data-base-url="http://docs.codehaus.org" data-linked-resource-container-id="230400684" title="null > GroovyShell.png"></p>

<p>For more information please see the documentation for <a class="confluence-link" href="/display/GROOVY/Groovy+Shell" data-linked-resource-id="15204521" data-linked-resource-type="page" data-linked-resource-default-alias="Groovy Shell" data-base-url="http://docs.codehaus.org">Groovy Shell</a>.</p>

<h1>Groovy Console</h1>

<p>For folks that prefer a GUI over command-line access:</p>

<p>After running, Maven will spit out something similar to this:</p>

<table class="wysiwyg-macro" data-macro-name="noformat" style="background-image: url(/plugins/servlet/confluence/placeholder/macro-heading?definition=e25vZm9ybWF0fQ&amp;locale=en_GB&amp;version=2); background-repeat: no-repeat;" data-macro-body-type="PLAIN_TEXT"><tr><td class="wysiwyg-macro-body"><pre>
[INFO] Scanning for projects...
[INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: 'groovy'.

[INFO] Building Maven Default Project
[INFO]    task-segment: [groovy:console] (aggregator-style)
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] [groovy:console]
</pre></td></tr></table>

<p>And then display the GUI console window, waiting for it to be closed before continuing:</p>
