By "got this right", the parent poster probably meant tab completion. You get that for free when writing a script or function, as well as basic syntax documentation. Both can be improved gradually by adding hints / comments in your script. If you are bothered by the verbose `Verb-Noun` structure of commands, those are mostly used in scripts (and you never type them fully, you use tab-completion of course). On the commandline you use aliases for many of them. For example listing files and directories created in the last 10 days: ls | ? CreationTime -ge (Get-Date).AddDays(-10) | ft name, size All the long words are tab completed (CreationTime, Get-Date, AddDays). The fully verbose syntax you might write in a script looks a bit uglier: Get-ChildItem | Where-Object CreationTime -ge (Get-Date).AddDays(-10) | Format-Table Name, Size Also PowerShell is NOT case-sensitive, even though many people seem to think so.
