Terminal client for Redis with auto-completion and syntax highlighting.

IRedis (Interactive Redis)

A Terminal Client for Redis with AutoCompletion and Syntax Highlighting. It is an alternative for redis-cli. IRedis is supposed to friendly for both user and redis-server, which means it is safe to use IRedis on production server. IRedis provide a --strict mode to prevent accidently running dangerous command, like KEYS *(See here, the Latency generated by slow commands section.

This project is under development, any comments are welcome.
