### Example : Just use that first line in a .cmd file and it will execute this file with powershell! | |
### | |
param( $name, $lastname ) | |
write-host -fore green "Well, hello $name $lastname" | |
<# Notes: | |
this works just fine from cmd (or powershell) - even with named parameters: | |
C:\>test.cmd | |
Well, hello | |
C:\>test garrett serack | |
Well, hello garrett serack | |
C:\>test -lastname garrett -name serack | |
Well, hello serack garrett | |

Q: Why would you want to do this ? | |
A: Because, a lot of people, don't run powershell as their shell, and running a .PS1 file from cmd doesn't run the script | |
