Extensions definition? #20

Closed JJ closed 7 years ago

I'm completely new to PowerShell. What are the default extensions? If I use .ps PostScript mode comes up (yes, seriously). In general, a bit of documentation about what this mode can and can't do would be nice...

The major mode variable for powershell is below. So, ps1, psd1, and psm1 are all recognized as powershell files. You'll need to add ps to auto-mode-alist to make it work. I can't add ps to this mode as it would clobber the Emacs' default for PostScript mode (though it's probably not that many users).

(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.ps[dm]?1\\'" . powershell-mode))

Yep, I should eventually get around to documentation, but since I don't have a Windows box anymore, it complicates things.

You can use PowerShell in Linux now, it's been released with an OpenSource license... It's where I'm using it now. :-)
