    reddit.com/r/vim | 2021-02-18
    Not sure if "PowerShell in a month of lunches" is just being sloppy, of if they really did call to cmd.exe, but either way, at the moment, PowerShell uses the Win32 API call CreateProcess to create processes- as it would need to do even if it did use cmd- notice that cmd.exe is a native executable and so solving the problem of starting native executable by calling to cmd is not in fact possible. Check out src/Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.Management/commands/management/Process.cs, and specifically the StartWithCreateProcess method. I'm not knowledgeable enough with the PowerShell codebase to know exactly how it fits together, but I did recursively grep for cmd.exe in the base directory and I can't find references to it besides in tests- and in those tests, PowerShell itself was calling cmd using its own interface to the Windows API. Happy to be shown I'm wrong about this, and it's incidental to the actual question, but it just doesn't make sense for a shell to rely on another shell to execute native commands when it can just call to the OS API itself, as PS clearly does.

  • what is power shell?
    reddit.com/r/PowerShell | 2021-02-02
    Windows 10 comes with the older Windows-only edition (version 5.1), but you can download the latest PowerShell (7) on GitHub. Assuming you have a newer PC, you'll want to download PowerShell-7.1.1-win-x64.msi which is the 64-bit Windows installer. MSI files are installer packages for Windows that you can run the same way as you would .EXE application files.
