I've been thrust into a world I'm really not familiar with and have to make minor things happen. Of course, they are major to me right now because it isn't bash.

What I need to do is simple in bash but seems so complicated in MS powershell. I'm trying to pass an argument to a script and then have it get the contents of that URL passed in the command. This is surely a simple task...but not to me right now.

Install Cygwin?

I kid, I kid. But seriously. You have my condolences.

Man, I'm doing way to much in Windows Server 2012 now. This company I'm working for is proud to be an all Windows shop too. Thankfully they are letting me use my Mac, but with a Win10 VM for all the interoperability stuff.

I did end up getting a script to work the way we need it too. I can't say I learned powershell, just how to read serverfault's site.
