To summarise: PowerShell is awkward.
2 comments

IME PowerShell is superior to posix shell text parsing.
It’s awkward when used to text pipelines, but the object oriented output is just so much nicer to parse and interact with for me that after spending some serious time with Powershell I am a huge fan. Being able to use the CLR directly and any .NET packages is killer.
