Weirdly, -o text writes YAML. Reviewing the cosmos SDK code this appears to be intentional

$ ../../akash --home=$PWD/cache query account akash1dc2wnk9alyxumdhsun8l0w8jlma253dhkfsk78 -o text
'@type': /cosmos.auth.v1beta1.BaseAccount
account_number: "0"
address: akash1dc2wnk9alyxumdhsun8l0w8jlma253dhkfsk78
pub_key: null
sequence: "0"

The documentation seems to indicate this

-o, --output string   Output format (text|json) (default "text"

I can propose this as a bug to the Cosmos SDK team, but I'm not sure if they consider it one.

another issue -o does not work for some commands

I think this might have been fixed. Verify?

still an issue on v0.12.2-rc0 -o text outputs yaml. will have to contact cosmos team
