I find this easier to remember than Invoke-WebRequest, or is it Invoke-RestMethod?

easier to remember: maybe, but much less discoverable than Invoke-WebRequest/Invoke-RestMethod. this seems to be the overall trend for linux shell commands. a few characters long for easy typing, but otherwise arbitrary strings that you have to remember and have 0 discoverability. GGP's comment was about how you had to search for how to do everything in powershell, so in that respect powershell is at least not worse than bash.

Have you ever heard of `apropos`?

Interesting ....

I really liked DEC's VMS DCL ... and "help" was top notch.
