In a previous post, we introduced the team of writers working on documenting DSC. (You can always contact them at DSCIX@microsoft.com.) We’ve started out by bringing the existing documentation up to date (the topics for all of the built-in resources have been brought current, for example) and transferring all or parts of most of the...

PowerShell Team PowerShell Team January 17, 2013 Jan 17, 2013 01/17/13
Our customers have certainly not been shy about their interest in multiple languages of Windows PowerShell Updatable Help, and we're grateful to hear how much they would value localized Help. Our challenge is this: Updatable Help is a new feature for this release of Windows PowerShell, and we have so very many new cmdlets and modules for ...

The best way to get updated help for Windows PowerShell core commands is to type "Get-Help –Online <cmdletname>," but that works only when you're online and your firewall permits Internet access. For all of those other times, there's the new Windows PowerShell 2.0 Core Help – May 2011 Update in CHM format. The newly released...

Beginning today, there's a new way to look at Windows PowerShell cmdlets. You're used to looking at them this way: Or, perhaps, this way: But would you like to look at them this way?

Documenting TRAP and THROW
Documenting TRAP and THROW
PowerShell Team PowerShell Team December 29, 2006 Dec 29, 2006 12/29/06
We pride ourselves about being a bit overboard when it comes to Error handling.  That is why our sparse (non-existing?) documentation of THROW and TRAP handling is both ironic and sad.  10,000 apologizes for that, we'll fix it in the next release.  In the mean time, it's Don Jones amd Jeffery Hicks to the rescue. ...
