PowerShell is open sourced and is available on Linux
PowerShell is my guilty pleasure of the computing world. Once you&#x27;ve piped strongly-typed objects around between your shell commands, text scraping seems barbaric by comparison. The problem, of course, is that you can&#x27;t use all that power for much, since the pool of PS-compatible tools and utilities is much shallower than it is for Unix shells. I&#x27;m really hoping this will help spur a new wave of PowerShell-compatible tools.<p>Come to the dark side, we have (strongly-typed) cookies.
