Windows PowerShell in Action by Bruce Payette

Windows PowerShell in Action by Bruce Payette

Finding and moving a file or folder on a Windows system is a trivial task. Finding and moving a thousand files every day across a network can be a full-time job. With the release of this new scripting language, Windows gains something Unix has had since the beginning: a tool to automate system management tasks. Microsoft sysadmins, developers, and power users have been asking for this for a long time. PowerShell replaces today's cobbled-together assemblies of third-party management tools with an elegant programming language and a powerful scripting shell. Windows PowerShell in Action shows how to build scripts and utilities to automate system tasks or create powerful system management tools to handle the day-to-day tasks that drive aWindows administrator's life. Because it's based on the .NET platform, PowerShell is also a powerful tool for developers and power users.

Bruce Payette

utility tools for Windows for the past 15 years at companies like MKS and
