can't use the new "powershell v2" of windows 7 to run rubystack ??!!

i just wan’t to use powershell over cmd in all my working with ruby from the command line ….. but it seems that i can’t
i think if i use it it will be the same way as in linux or osx , right ?

and if any one could help me could help me to replace cmd.exe with powershell …....
regards,

Hi,

I don’t know if it is possible, we haven’t tried Windows 7 yet.

Cheers

i think powershell is already coming with vista or at least with vista sp1 .
or you can install it on vista and tell me ….. please , if you can :)
i think many many people will use it if they know it works ….

We mostly (if not all) develop on Linux, and test in Virtual Machines. Currently I don’t recall having a Vista SP1, tough. Is there any user out there with Vista SP1 who is willing to give a helping hand? Thanks in advance.

i saw powershell under windows update for Vista SP1.
so i can confirm that powershell is available for vista sp1 users

I can help you out.

Hi,

Great thanks, could you run the “use_ruby.bat” file from this new powershell console? If there is any issue, could you post the issues?

Cheers.

i’m waiting for you “MySchizoBuddy” , hope you find a way :)

Ok as per this document, http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/topics/winpsh/manual/run.mspx
you first have to assign it an execution policy by typing this

Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted

setx PATH "C:\RubyStack\git\bin;C:\RubyStack\sqlite;C:\RubyStack\imagemagick;C:\RubyStack\php;C:\RubyStack\mysql\bin;C:\RubyStack\subversion\bin;C:\RubyStack\ruby\bin;%PATH%" 
setx MAGICK_CODER_MODULE_PATH "C:\RubyStack\imagemagick\modules\coders" 
setx RUBYOPT "rubygems" 

& "C:\RubyStack\use_ruby.bat"

btw Powershell is available for Windows Xp sp2 as well
