commands detail - f

    The simplest Powershell equivalent of the bash find is simply to stick a -recurse on the end of a dir command

    2. PS x:\> dir  *BB.txt -recurse
    4.     Directory: x:\Archive\WO8559B
    6. Mode                LastWriteTime     Length Name
    7. ----                -------------     ------ ----

    If you want Powersehll to give you output that looks more like the Unix find then you can pipe into | select fullname

    1. PS x:\> dir  *BB.txt -recurse | select fullname
    3. FullName
    4. --------
    5. x:\Archive\WO8559B\Script_WO8559_Master_ScriptBB.txt
    6. x:\Archive\WO8559B\WO8559_finalBB.txt
    7. x:\Archive\WO8559B\WO8559_part1BB.txt
    8. x:\Archive\WO8559B\WO8559_part2BB.txt
    9. x:\Archive\Script_WO7171BB.txt
    10. x:\Archive\Script_WO8541BB.txt
    11. x:\Archive\Script_WO8645_BB.txt

    for

    The equivalent of this bash:

    1. for (( i = 1 ; i <= 5 ; i++ ))
    2. do   
    3. done
    5. Hello, world 1
    6. Hello, world 2
    7. Hello, world 3
    8. Hello, world 4
    9. Hello, world 5

    For the Bash

    1. for I in Chelsea Arsenal Spuds
    2. do
    3.   echo $I
    4. done

    the equivalent Powershell is:

    1. foreach ($Team in ("Chelsea", "Arsenal", "Spuds")) {write-output $Team}

    For the bash:

    1. london="Chelsea Arsenal Spurs"
    2. for team in $london; do   echo "$team"; done

    Bash:

    1. for team in $(egrep -v mill london.txt)
    2. > do
    3. >   echo $team
    4. > done

    Posh:

    1. select-string -notmatch millwall london.txt | select line | foreach {write-output $_}

    or:

      Posh:

      1. foreach ($LocalFile in $(gci)) {write-output $LocalFile.Name}
