I'm not a big Windows user, but PowerShell came out in 2006 and has made a lot of big strides since.

PowerShell came out missing a lot of obvious commands it's gradually been filling in but the core concept is pretty good. It's easy to write a bunch of scripts and feel like it's just normal to waste a lot of time munging text but PowerShell kind of frees you from that.

Do you use Powershell ISE then?

Powershell is a shell, not a terminal. The terminal still sucks and ISE is a poor substitute.

How is Powershell not a terminal?
