PowerShell Running Inside of Emacs

Dino Chiesa has a couple of blogs showing how he was able to get PowerShell running as an "inferior shell" within Emacs.  Apparently "inferior shell" is an emacs term of art and not a dig at PowerShell :-).  I've always respected the all consuming nature of emacs and the love it has from its users.  I used to joke that "emacs isn't an editor, it was a way of life".  Emacs lovers log into emacs and that is where they hang out - all day.  They can do almost everything from within emacs.

Well know Dino shows how they can hang out in emacs and  run PowerShell.  Check out the screenshot HERE and the instructions HERE.

Thanks Dino!

Hey, you know how the saying goes: "Emacs is a decent operating system... However, it lacks a good text editor" :)
