That's awesome! Thanks for sharing all that. I know on windows cat is just an alias, I assume on Linux it's instead pointing directly to the utility like you mentioned?

Do you use oh-my-posh for themeing?

00:39:53
@the-mentor:matrix.orgDementor 🇮🇱🇺🇸You are right on Linux its just the native cat command And yes I use oh-my-posh for the prompt theme 05:10:50
@the-mentor:matrix.orgDementor 🇮🇱🇺🇸The funny thing is you can use oh my posh for almost any shell not just powershell 05:11:35
@the-mentor:matrix.orgDementor 🇮🇱🇺🇸It started as a powershell prompt theme but now it can do bash/fish/zsh etc 05:12:45
@the-mentor:matrix.orgDementor 🇮🇱🇺🇸 footballsportsfan1960: I really like how easy it is to make myself "tooling" via pwsh 16:45:00
@footballsportsfan1960:matrix.orgfootballsportsfan1960 It's a great shell! I've found the object-based logic really easy to comprehend. I find utilities like Select-Object and Where-Object come pretty naturally to me approaching from a SQL mindset. 22:06:32

I've sorta got the hang of it but don't love it lol

@footballsportsfan1960:matrix.orgfootballsportsfan1960That new Zorin beta does look cool, I've been diligently following Pop_OS dev on their new desktop environment as i feel like it'll be a pretty solid improvement to the current one03:54:54
