I really like Powershell. If you install RHEL or Fedora I'm the 'mikem' in the default /etc/sudoers file.

I've been using bash for 20 years, trained a few hundred RHCEs, and spent a large part of my life working for Red Hat and then IBM's dedicated Linux group. So yeah maybe I don't know any better, but that's because I haven't encountered it before. Piping objects to 'where' and 'select' is simply a better approach than scraping text. The implementation details - having to use .net to make cmdlets - aren't great but the fundamental idea of powershell is excellent.

That's pretty clear, and has been in the guidelines since long before sctb was a mod.
