I also like to use the command line, but I hate that flags are inconsistent, case sensitive (with unrelated meaning) and not good discoverable

- adamnew123456 5y agoI personally have no desire to use it outside of Windows, but Powershell fixes all there things if you're so inclined: > flags are inconsistent At least among the core command set, there is a set of "core flags" like -ErrorAction or -Verbose that are consistent. Though I don't know how often you'll find them in third-party commands. > case sensitive There's a preferred case that you'll get if you tab complete, but -Verbose is -VERBOSE is -VERBOSE. > not good discoverable Tab completion works for flags everywhere and each of them should be included in Get-Help regardless of if the author documents them.
