xyzxyz998··on PowerShell is open sourced and is available on Linux
I don't want to be that smug ITT guy but it has to be said:

Bash != Readline and Bash != coreutils and Bash != (what gives your machine the ability to do ssh)

Bash is the stupid if for while syntax

You have Readline in powershell and you can use coreutils binaries in Powershell. No problems there.

Thank you for doing this!

Anyone who's done any kind of if else while for in bash/zsh and powershell knows what a relief PowerShell is. I'd love for PowerShell (PSReadline actually) to support the common options of readline- e.g. HISTIGNORE, HISTCONTROL etc

What do you know about Powershell? (The answer will depend on that)
