This is handy but I have found the odd difference. I was anticipating doing a fairly tedious exercise of going through all the Unix date formats and then working out the Powershell equivalent, but discovered the Powershell Team has effectively done all this for me. The Powershell equivalent of the Unix ‘date -s’ is set-date The Powershell equivalent of the Unix ‘date’ is get-date The following are built-in aliases for copy-item: cp This could be quite a significant difference, depending on what you want to clear and why! cp ‘Clear-screen’ on the other hand seems to wipe the previous output (actually in the same way that cmd’s cls command does….). In my Linux environment, running putty, ‘clear’ gives you a blank screen by effectively scrolling everything up, which means you can scroll back down. However, it’s possibly worth noting that the behaviour of the two commands is slightly different between the two environments. PowerShell also has built-in alias ‘clear’ for ‘clear-screen’. The Powershell equivalent to the unix ‘clear’ is clear-screen The unix ‘clear’ command clears your screen. … and turned it into a function cd Set-Location

There’s no one-liner equivalent for the Linux ‘cal’, but I’ve downloaded the code at: Or, following on from a ‘Power Tips of the Day’ ::GetFileName('c:\temp\tax_dodgers.txt')

If you type something more vague, it will show you a list of all the help pages you might be interested in.īy contrast if type ‘man process’ at the Bash prompt, you’d just get No manual entry for process you type something like ‘get-help debug-process’) it will show you the help for that particular function. If get-help in Powershell shell scores a ‘direct hit’ (i.e. This is quite a nice feature of Powershell compared to Bash. Gets the processes that are running on the local computer or a rem.

You can then create an alias for the function: set-alias cdt cdtempĪpropos is one of my favourite bash commands, not so much for what it does, but because I like the word ‘apropos’. + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundExceptionĪ way around is to create a function instead: remove-item -path alias:cdtemp + CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (cd c:\temp:String), CommandNotFoundException Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again. You get: cdtemp : The term 'cd c:\temp' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. If you try doing this in Powershell, it doesn’t work so well: set-alias cdtemp "cd c:\temp" In *nix, you can do this alias bdump="cd /u01/app/oracle/admin/$ORACLE_SID/bdump/" 22.5 for loop – for each file in a folderĪt it’s simplest, the powershell equivalent of the unix ‘alias’ is ‘set-alias’ set-alias ss select-string.22.2 for loop – for each word in a string.
