> The Powershell developers have the luxury of a clean slate and a knowledge of history
The whole discussion is about if to renew unix tools or not. And I know it's a courageous question from a man who learns it a few months but I think the question is relevant with the arrival of Windows PowerShell.
Perderabo:
> Is Powershell really worth learning?
I don't think it's time to say there's Windows PowerShell Comunity Technology Preview 2 and the tool is developing. But for my purposes it's quite good.
a few examples:
# Finding files greater than 10MB
$files=get-childitem d:\ -recurse -force
$files | Where {$_.length -gt 10MB} | Sort Length -descending | tee-object D:\tmp\report.txt
# Copying files with preserving tree structure
copy -path e:\html -filter *.htm -dest D:\Temp\Project -recurse -container -passthru
Examples are silly but it's a tool that I've always missed in Windows. (the syntax is quite interesting)
