[Bug] MQTTX CLI -- mqttx conn hangs after connection

[oising]

What did I do

Whether passing via explicit args, or using saved json config, mqttx conn hangs after connecting. Is this meant to hang, or open a shell? What is the point of this functionality? If it's meant to test connection, it should close once connected successfully. Very confusing.

What happened

mqttx hangs.

Expected

Absolutely no idea.

Environment

windows 11 arm64, SL7, node 22

More detail

The mqttx conn behavior is working as intended. It's designed to establish and maintain an MQTT connection - MQTT is built around sessions and persistent connections. The "hanging" state indicates a successful active connection.

You can:

• Use Ctrl+C to disconnect when done
• Use pub for publishing messages
• Use sub for subscribing
• Try bench or simulate for advanced scenarios

If you just need to verify connectivity, you can Ctrl+C after a successful connection.

You could make it more explicit my emitting "Press ctrl+c to exit"

Good suggestions, thank you.
