Since shell languages invariably end up becoming scripting languages (see: Bourne shell and resulting nightmare), Powershell targets being a good tool for both purposes.

When scripting and writing documentation, full commandlet names are encouraged:

  Get-ChildItem | Where-Object { $_.Name.Contains("evidence") } | Remove-Item

  gci | ?{ $_.name.contains("evidence") } | ri

For the convenience of those hopelessly entrenched in Bourne shell, there are some default aliases:

  ls | ?{ $_.name.contains("evidence") } | rm
