5. FAMILIAR COMMANDS
You can use commands that you are familiar
with such as CD, PING, IPCONFIG or DIR
There are also some Unix commands that
can be used such as LS or MAN (these
commands are aliases to the actual
PowerShell commands)
Get-Alias will list the preloaded Alias’s and
will show you what Cmdlet they are mapped
to
6. CMDLETS
The majority of the PowerShell functionality
comes from Cmdlet’s
Always in Verb-Noun format and never plural
(Get-WmiObject or Get-Process)
Cmdlet’s return objects not text
Retrieve list of Cmdlet’s (Get-Command)
Can tab complete
7. PIPING
One of the time savers in PowerShell is
giving the user the ability to pipe commands
together
Ex. Get-process | select ProcessName, ID |
Sort ProcessName | FL
OUT, SELECT, EXPORT
8. SCRIPTS
PowerShell scripts differ from most scripts
PowerShell scripts end in .ps1 and have to
be run inside a PowerShell window
Double clicking a PowerShell script will open
the script in notepad
Scripts must also be run in this format
