I would like to see how it will look in PowerShell. $(readelf).ShowMeTheSecondStringFromTheEnd or $(readelf).PrintTheLastColumnInHeX?

A comparable PowerShell cmdlet would give you one object per line with properties corresponding to the columns. And no, those properties usually have sensible names, instead of "LastColumn".

Of course, for wrapping the native command you'd still have to do text parsing if you want objects. This was more as a comparison of the different worlds here not so much as "if I ran readelf in PowerShell it would get magically different output".
