linux compatibility layer
ASSUMILATEEEEEEEEEEEEE
powershell

oh yeah? try to do some basic ssh stuff with """power""" shell
COMMAND.COM
>>60925554
Powershell isn't even a real shell. Fuck off.
>>60924925
What is a shell?
>>60925642
Which Linux shell has ssh built in to it? None of the ones I've tried have done.
Bash. Otherwise, Powershell is ok.
I use cmder and have cygwin installed.
Better experience than bash on loonix.
>>60925756
ssh comes by default with every distro I've tried.
The shell doesn't come with grep or sed but they are essential shell commands.
>>60924925
WIndows has cmd, PowerShell and Bash, which are the best three shells in existence. You don't really have to choose when you can use the three of them at the same time..
>>60925788
Oh so your shell doesn't have ssh capabilities it relies on third party application.
Meanwhile PowerShell comes with PSRemoting built in.

Powershell comes with grep in the form of Select-String and sed in the form of -replace built in to the shell.
>>60925842
Not who you're replying to, but isn't that a security issue?
>>60925867
You have to enable it just like you would sshd, also PSRemoting has constrained endpoints.
>>60925842
Do one thing and do it right.
I can install anything I need with a few keystrokes.
>>60925529
No, for one reason:

if you want Linux to not die on the vine, don't fall for it.
>>60925842
PSRemoting is so terrible that Microsoft is actually porting OpenSSHd to Windows to replace it. This is also why the Win10/Server2k16 console is getting support for ANSI and VT100 escape codes.
>>60926416
So now what you're saying is that not only does it have native remote that works just fine, it also has third party ssh that Linux users have to install for their shells to be able to do anything ssh at all.
Sounds like Windows is the better choice.
