Bart Busschots is enamored with the open source shell from Microsoft called PowerShell. His goal was to give us a teaser on this modern shell but there was enough material in his shownotes that we're recording the audio in two halves. Feel free to read ahead in the shownotes if you like, or you can wait till the second installment to read the rest.

In this first half, we learn about how Bart begrudgingly started using PowerShell and what made him become such a fan. He walks us through the philosophy and then the structure of commands first. We get to play with a few tiny scripts to illustrate how the "plumbing" works in PowerShell and we learn about how message streams work with data streams.

You can find Bart's fabulous tutorial shownotes at pbs.bartificer.net.
