IT:AD:CommandLine

M

any devs still use classic IT:AD:CLI – but MS is making a push for them to get with the program and use IT:AD:Powershell for everything from here on in (been added prominently on the Start bar of new WIndows installs for a while now, whereas the CommandPrompt is not, every CommandPrompt command works on the IT:AD:Powershell commandline, etc).

Hence why when ever we are talking about Git from the command line, we're really talking about using Git from the IT:AD:Powershell command line… And that's why we're talking about IT:AD:PoshGit.

Common Line Redirection operators

> redirects to a file or device
< reads from a file instead of keyboard
>> appends to a file
>& writes from one handle to another handle
<& reads rom one handle into another handle
| reads output from one and writes it to input of another command (Pipe)

Use input

//Read from a file (sorts the contents of file1.txt)
sort < file.txt

Capture output:

 
  //Pipe results to a file.
  sc query > results.txt
  //Pipe things to the screen, but in pages
  sc query | more
  //press Enter to move one line....
  //press Space to move down one page...
  Persisting Command Line results
  First -- remember that you can invoke any command line application from the Run, and persist the info on screen with the /K flag...eg:
  cmd /K ping skysigal.xact-solutions.com
