These days you probably want Windows Powershell. It's built on the .NET framework so it's pretty darn powerful and AFAIK is available by default on every modern WinOS.
- deevus 10y agoPowershell _is_ great (I help run an OSS project written in Powershell), but it has a long start-up time. If you're doing it as a pre-build step for example, you don't want to add potentially seconds (!) to your build just to use powershell.
- stinos 10y agoDo you use -noprofile? (you probably should for build steps, or else make sure all your build environments have a similar profile to yours) Then the startup time is usually much better - at least I haven't seen it going over some 100s of mSec.
- ygra 10y agoStartup time used to be horrible in Windows 7 (v2, I think), but they improved it a lot since then. It starts instantly for me on my Windows 10 machine here.
- herbst 10y agoIs there a linux or mac build of Powershell? After all this years hearing it is not that bad i would really love to try it a day or two
