Evaluate PowerShell code from inside Emacs
Raw
gistfile1.el
How to use:
Write some PowerShell code in any Emacs buffer.
Select the region to evaluate, then M-x eval-region-powershell to evaluate it as a PowerShell script block.
The output goes into *Shell Command Output*.
(defun eval-region-powershell ()
(interactive)
(shell-command
(concat "powershell -noprofile -encodedcommand "
(base64-encode-string
(encode-coding-string (buffer-substring (mark) (point)) 'utf-16le)))))
A great alternative to REPL-based development or the PowerShell ISE.
