我还没有看到PowerShell真正流行起来，至少现在还没有。因此，除非团队中的其他人已经知道它，否则学习它可能不值得。

对于您的困境，您最好使用其他人可以支持的脚本语言，如您提到的Perl或Ruby或Python。

我认为这在很大程度上取决于你需要做什么。就我个人而言，我一直在为自己的个人脚本使用Python，但我知道当我开始编写一些东西时，我永远无法将其传递下去——所以我尽量不做任何太有革命性的事情。

我已经使用了一些PowerShell来实现脚本自动化。虽然环境看起来比Unix shell考虑得更周到，但实际上使用对象而不是文本流要笨拙得多，而且过去30年开发的许多Unix设施仍然缺失。

Cygwin仍然是我在Windows主机上选择的脚本环境。在完成任务方面，它肯定胜过其他选择。

无论如何，我都不是一个非常有经验的PowerShell用户，但是我接触到的一点点PowerShell给我留下了深刻的印象。您可以将内置的cmdlet链接在一起，以完成您在Unix提示符下可以完成的任何事情，并且还有一些额外的优点，用于执行诸如导出到CSV、HTML表以及更深入的系统管理类型的作业。

如果你真的需要像sed这样的东西，总有UnixUtils或GnuWin32，你可以很容易地与PowerShell集成。

作为一个长期的Unix用户，我在习惯命令命名方案时遇到了一些麻烦，如果我了解更多的。net，我肯定会从中受益更多。

所以本质上，我认为如果windows独有的特性不构成问题，它是非常值得学习的。

这里有很多很棒的答案，这是我的看法。PowerShell是准备好了，如果你是…例子:

grep = "Select-String -Pattern"

sort = " sort - object "

uniq = "Get-Unique"

file = "Get-Item"

cat = "Get-Content"

Perl/AWK/Sed不是命令，而是实用程序，因此很难比较，但在PowerShell中几乎可以做所有事情。

我直到最近才开始认真地接触PowerShell。尽管在过去的7年里，我一直在一个几乎完全基于Windows的环境中工作，但我有Unix背景，我发现自己一直在努力将我在Windows上的交互体验“Unix化”。至少可以说，这令人沮丧。

将PowerShell与Bash、tcsh或zsh这样的东西进行比较是公平的，因为grep、sed、awk、find等实用程序严格来说都不是shell的一部分;然而，它们将永远是任何Unix环境的一部分。也就是说，像Select-String这样的PowerShell命令具有与grep非常相似的功能，并且被捆绑为PowerShell的核心模块…所以界限可能有点模糊。

我认为最关键的是文化，而事实上，各自的工具集将体现各自的文化:

Unix is a file-based, (in general, non Unicode) text-based culture. Configuration files are almost exclusively text files. Windows, on the other hand has always been far more structured in respect of configuration formats--configurations are generally kept in proprietary databases (e.g., the Windows registry) which require specialised tools for their management. The Unix administrative (and, for many years, development) interface has traditionally been the command line and the virtual terminal. Windows started off as a GUI and administrative functions have only recently started moving away from being exclusively GUI-based. We can expect the Unix experience on the command line to be a richer, more mature one given the significant lead it has on PowerShell, and my experience matches this. On this, in my experience: The Unix administrative experience is geared towards making things easy to do in a minimal amount of key strokes; this is probably as a result of the historical situation of having to administer a server over a slow 9600 baud dial-up connection. Now PowerShell does have aliases which go a long way to getting around the rather verbose Verb-Noun standard, but getting to know those aliases is a bit of a pain (anyone know of something better than: alias | where {$_.ResolvedCommandName -eq "<command>"}?). An example of the rich way in which history can be manipulated: iptables commands are often long-winded and repeating them with slight differences would be a pain if it weren't for just one of many neat features of history manipulation built into Bash, so inserting an iptables rule like the following: iptables -I camera-1-internet -s 192.168.0.50 -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT a second time for another camera ("camera-2"), is just a case of issuing: !!:s/-1-/-2-/:s/50/51 which means "perform the previous command, but substitute -1- with -2- and 50 with 51. The Unix experience is optimised for touch-typists; one can pretty much do everything without leaving the "home" position. For example, in Bash, using the Emacs key bindings (yes, Bash also supports vi bindings), cycling through the history is done using Ctrl-P and Ctrl-N whilst moving to the start and end of a line is done using Ctrl-A and Ctrl-E respectively ... and it definitely doesn't end there. Try even the simplest of navigation in the PowerShell console without moving from the home position and you're in trouble. Simple things like versatile paging (a la less) on Unix don't seem to be available out-of-the-box in PowerShell which is a little frustrating, and a rich editor experience doesn't exist either. Of course, one can always download third-party tools that will fill those gaps, but it sure would be nice if these things were just "there" like they are on pretty much any flavour of Unix. The Windows culture, at least in terms of system API's is largely driven by the supporting frameworks, viz., COM and .NET, both of-which are highly structured and object-based. On the other hand, access to Unix APIs has traditionally been through a file interface (/dev and /proc) or (non-object-oriented) C-style library calls. It's no surprise then that the scripting experiences match their respective OS paradigms. PowerShell is by nature structured (everything is an object) and Bash-and-friends file-based. The structured API which is at the disposal of a PowerShell programmer is vast (essentially matching the vastness of the existing set of standard COM and .NET interfaces).

简而言之，尽管PowerShell的脚本功能可以说比Bash更强大(特别是当您考虑到. net BCL的可用性时)，但交互体验明显较弱，特别是如果您从完全由键盘驱动、基于控制台的角度(就像许多unix用户一样)进行交互时。

PowerShell功能非常强大，比Unix shell的标准内置功能更强大(但这只是因为它包含了许多通常分配给子程序的功能)。另外，考虑到你可以用任何。net语言编写小程序，包括IronPython、IronRuby、PerlNet等。或者你可以简单地从PowerShell调用你的Cygwin命令，忽略所有额外的功能，它将类似于Bash, KornShell，或任何…
