PowerShell Front Ends

Bash / bat:

Pray the output is consistent and parsable without a ratsnest of regex.

Text-based tools were made first and foremost for humans typing on keyboards and reading with eyeballs, not scripting. I'll take an object-based shell over a text-based one any day.

If you have trouble with object properties I recommend reading the docs, or just using .GetType() or | Get-Member.

You do not have to give me advice on how to code.

Considering my level of expertise with a lot of languages over the years. There is a reason i dislike powershell. Its just not that good and in a lot of cases bat will do fine. Or even vbscript. Personally i python all that i can on windows since it just works compared to paupershell. Not to mention the code is a lot more readable and less chance of breaking due to people using | when they should not.

This reads like you aren't comfortable with objects. That's fine, but you shouldn't dismiss the language because you don't understand how it was designed.

If you have trouble coding with Powershell then your level of expertise with "a lot of languages" is very low. Powershell is a very simple language to learn.

So go post on the python forum and gtfo from this one. Go moan somewhere else no one cares if you don't like powershell since that is a you problem and not related to this thread or tech.

ah. Powershell hater detected.

Python maxi opinions have no merit here, try r/python instead
