PowerShell VS winpty

This smells like when PowerShell aliased curl and wget to a completely different command, with incompatible arguments.

PowerShell is available on macOS and Linux as well (source on Github: https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell). It may not be as well-integrated with things like system services management, but the language still works well. You can still use all the command line tools you're used to on Linux, of course.

nushell does look interesting, though the lack of a .deb repository does put it pretty low on my to-do list.

Issue #7940 discusses potential improvements to array slicing.

Note: This can be problematic as it prevents upstream commands from running their end {} block. See here. The new clean {} block introduced in PowerShell v7.3 does not suffer from this issue.

Can you give an example of something that PS can do that is built-in for text processing, instead of a proprietary symbolic query language?

https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/blob/master/LICENSE... is the MIT license. (Microsoft supplies debs directly which may reduce the motivation for Debian to do so.)

Oh, heh, also https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/blob/master/docs/bu... the build script is written in PowerShell, so there's a bootstrapping problem :-) (Debian has solved those before of course, but with community sentiment like the above maybe noone is motivated to bother.)

According to https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/19628, the default behaviour is invoked whenever the completion script returns no output. To attempt to do so, I tried exiting the script via returning an empty string, or using the return keyword to exit the script completely, unfortunately with no avail. Is there a technique to achieve what I want, and is there any documentation about it other than the official one? Thank you in advance.

You can read winpty GitHub page for reason.

Trying to research this problem, it seems there's some issues with pty=True and winpty. I already followed the suggestions of including winpty, changing pty to false, and still nothing. Furthermore, looking for this error online doesn't really pop up anything of help.

winpty was a third-party lib for emulating a pty-like interface on Windows.
