This package improves the powershell (core and desktop) integration as vim 'shell' using a set of scripts.

Repo: https://github.com/MiguelBarro/setpwsh

Having powershell core (windows or linux) or desktop available is a prerequisite.

There is only a single command:

    :SetPwsh [Desktop | FtpFromWsl | SshFromWsl]

This command will modify the 'shell' and related options to use the
powershell. It admits the following argument flags that are only meaningful in windows:

+ Desktop     Use powershell desktop instead of powershell core.
+ FtpFromWsl  Sets up netrw global options to rig wsl ftp.
+ SshFromWsl  Sets up netrw global options to rig wsl ssh & scp.

Usage examples:

:read !1..5 | \% { [char]($_+96) }

will fill the current buffer with:

1  a
2  b
3  c
4  d
5  e

Is possible to use filter commands to modify the buffer. The plugin allows creating powershell filters where the buffer input is translated into a powershell pipeline input. The $_ automatic variable will match each input line. For example in the above buffer doing:

:1,5!"-->$_<--"

will turn the buffer into:

1  -->a<--
2  -->b<--
3  -->c<--
2  -->d<--
5  -->e<--
