Stateful commands #87

I have a suggestion: instead of typing something like

aws> ec2 describe-instances
aws> ec2 run-instances --blahblah blah

you could enter the prefix once, and all subsequent commands are assumed to include that prefix:

aws> ec2
aws ec2> describe-instances
aws ec2> run-instances --blahblah blah

then use exit or similar to move to the upper level.
