It looks like Microsoft is be recommending Visual Studio Code in favor of PowerShell ISE for development. From Using Visual Studio Code for PowerShell Development - PowerShell | Microsoft Docs at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/dev-cross-plat/vscode/... Visual Studio Code is a cross-platform script editor by Microsoft. Together with the PowerShell extension, it provides a rich and interactive script editing experience, making it easier to write reliable PowerShell scripts. Visual Studio Code with the PowerShell extension is the recommended editor for writing PowerShell scripts. [...] The Windows PowerShell ISE is still available for Windows. However, it is no longer in active feature development. The ISE does not work with PowerShell 6 and higher. As a component of Windows, it continues to be officially supported for security and high-priority servicing fixes. We have no plans to remove the ISE from Windows. There has been a lot of work on Visual Studio Code in terms of accessibility. Chris On Mon, Jun 08, 2020 at 08:21:23AM +0000, Darragh ? H?iligh wrote:
Hello,
Looking through the archives, I notice that Caroline Ford asked a similar question three years.
The PowerShell Ise application seems to have seriously considered accessibility. The text in the console is readable but a number of keyboard acrobatics must be used before this is possible.
Has anyone a better way of accessing this?
I'm writing something a little more complicated and having the ability to select set parts of the code and run this would be a great advantage.
Currently, I'm going into the touch cursor, going into the text reading layer with numpad slash then reading the output. This works but it means that I cant route the mouse to specific text to copy it. I know I can copy from the virtual buffer of course but it's nice to be able to show people looking over my shoulder during training etc what's happening.
