@" | |
This file is PowerShell only, but it can run unmodified on Windows, linux & macOs | |
Windows recognises it as executable because of the the ps1 suffix. | |
linux and macOS recognises the #! header and so will pass the script to powershell to run. | |
linux and macOS do still require the execute bit set: chmod a+x *.ps1, or to be run like bash *.ps1 | |
