Then they made PowerShell, which removes any complaints one might have!
- guard-of-terra 14y agoWell, not any. For example, still no built-in decent package manager able to download and install software along with dependencies.
- akandiah 14y agoI believe he/she was being sarcastic there :)
- kalleboo 14y agoI didn't know bash or zsh had a built-in package manager!
- guard-of-terra 14y agoI didn't know "command line terminal" equals "bash or zsh"! Of course I'm talking ecosystem here.
- shadowfox 14y agoYou may be moving your goal posts here a bit.
- guelo 14y agoMy main complaint with PowerShell is that you can't pipe one command to another.
- fabriceleal 14y agoWhat do you mean? You can do stuff like this: ps | where { $_.name -like "*host" } | foreach { $_.id | out-host }
