      If sed existed in Windows, that would make my current task much easier.

      Doesn't really need it. You have PowerShell to work with objects rather than sorting through garbled text output.

      What are you trying to do?

      Problem is a piece of this can't work with Powershell (deals with Cisco AMP's sfc.exe). Where I'd want something like sed is for this.

      1. Write two entries to the host file. This is easy enough: Echo text and redirect to the hosts file.
      2. Do the stuff needed for AMP (which can't be done with PowerShell due to an AMP limitation)
      3. Once stuff is done, find the two entries made from step 1 and comment them out.

        Thinking about how not having to use Putty any more, and being able to SSH into my *NIX boxes right from Powershell is so nice.

        That's not PowerShell enabling that. That's just that SSH is installed now. Works with anything on Windows, cmd, PS, Bash.... anything.

          This is a big deal. All other systems work transparently with one another, local and remote. The object system in PowerShell breaks that in really problematic ways.

              Just passed off the on-call shackle (phone) for the next five weeks 😄

              Lucky - we pass it around at the start of each week. could be a moot point though.. sigh.

                Still need it, PS doesn't address the things that we almost all need to do, a lot of the time. Objects sound cool, and sometimes are, but in the real world, often don't cut it when you just need to process text. PS makes "what you see" very different from "what you get." Something we've always had in all other platforms. It's a huge functionality loss that you have to know all kinds of secret things going on in the background that aren't visible, and what is visible is often "fake".

                  http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/sed.htm

                  Nice. If I could only install that on every server we have 😄

                  https://chocolatey.org/packages/sed

                  choco install sed -y

                        Well that's good to know. I'm just happy it is actually "built-in" now.

                              I got a deal on a nice boat.

                              This is what I ended up with

                              They said,.. a LITTLE water damage.

                              (disclaimer: no, I didn't by a boat. and if I had, it would have had a label MATCH BOX on it.

                                      Ugh.... been stuck on the phone (partially with a customer) trying to track down one of the strangest phone issues I've ever seen. Their phones work fine, but we are unable to call out to them on our phones (cloud hosted AT&T, yes I know, not my decision). They are able to call us just fine. We can call them on a cell phone without issue, but we cant reach any of their numbers, or any of their neighboring gov't offices.
