Well, I'm waiting till someone ports PowerShell from Windows to Linux :) It's really the next generation of shells.

Power shell deals with objects whereas the unix shell pipes texts. Quite not the same thing. To change that you'll also have to make all of your programs emit objects rather than text. The idea might have merits, but certainly it's such a big change that will break too many things.
If you want something similar, look for perl-shell, python-shell or ruby-shell.
Re: PowerShell Posted Feb 24, 2009 17:01 UTC (Tue) by larryr (guest, #4030) [Link] PowerShell may be the next generation of shells, but I hope not. For me the most valuable thing about using the unix command line tools is that they are constrained to produce and consume a very limited set of very simple, very consistent, and very structured text output/input.

You ask, the internet (and the Free Software community) delivers ;-)
OK, so it's not the same as the Windows PowerShell. Still, seems to have some similar
