I'm beginning to write simple scripts in powershell. One of the things items that really isn't straight forward is the write-output command. At first glance, one would think that this would simply output a string. Well, there is a trick I found.
PS>write-output xxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
really outputs
xxxxxxxx
yyyyyyyyy
PS>write-output "xxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy"
really outputs
xxxxxxxx yyyyyyyyy
PS> $A = 10
PS>$B = 20
PS>write-output "A = $A B = $B"
really outputs
A = 10 B = 20
