I've been using Powershell a lot lately. I keep hoping I'll get the hang of it, but everything sucks. It gives you Compare-Object, but what it returns is an object. Even if I waste 10 minutes converting it to text and want to then split the strings it returns there is a 99% chance it won't work. Sure it is great for automating a few IT things like installing new users, but the problem is it shouldn't be that hard. In bash I would just pipe the output of diff to Awk and simply split on "," and tell it to print what I want. I'm sure it is possible in Powershell, but the 6 ways I tried never worked.
