Bad powershell command for extraction of downloaded binary

[mark-hahn]

I am running a platformio task in vscode. It runs download_fs.py. The script tries to run a mklittlefs command but powershell barfs ...

> "C:\Users\mark\.platformio\packages\tool-mklittlefs\mklittlefs" -b 8192 -p 256 --unpack "unpacked_fs" "C:\Users\mark\apps\tiny\downloaded_fs_0x300000_0xfa000.bin"
At line:1 char:65
+ ... sers\mark\.platformio\packages\tool-mklittlefs\mklittlefs" 
-b 8192 -p ...
+
~~
Unexpected token '-b' in expression or statement.

The empty folder unpacked_fs was created and the downloaded binary downloaded_fs_0x300000_0xfa000.bin was in the root of the project folder.

I don't know anything about powershell and I can't figure out what is wrong with that command. I googled a lot.

Everything worked in the past before I reinstalled windows 10, vscode, and platformio and ran the project I cloned that used this. Can someone help me?

Likely it doesn't like that the binary is quoted or there is the .exe missing. I'll check. I tested this with the default terminal set to cmd.exe.

I tried changing the quotes on everything but I might have missed the right combination. I'll do more experimenting.

I give up. We need a powershell (or cmd) expert. It appears to be a simple syntax error. (I hate windows).

Edit: Let me know if you want me to post this on stackoverflow.

This should have been fixed by #7, I will retest this in Powershell.
