Just dropped a minor update to #Turtle #PowerShell

Added .Home(), .Towards, and .Distance() for more #Python compatibility.

Added .lt/.rt for old #logo compatibility.

Also made turtle capable of setting.

I see. This would definitely be much easier with SVG ( with or without Turtle ). Drop into my DMs, hit me up on discord, or look up the SVG Image element on MDN 😉😎.

Also, there's this other much larger project I have that wraps the SvG standard into commands:

I recently made a #Turtle Graphics engine atop #PowerShell and #SVG.

Might not be *exactly* what you're looking for, but I'm open to issues to close the gap.

It's not much of a reverse card to say "think that tried to read directly from memory with syntax trickery" shouldn't be trusted.

If you think running this script is safe, I have an old #PowerShell #HTML5 prototype to show you.

Anyone smart enough to know about Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal is probably not dumb enough to treat this as an IQ test.

I'll ask for transparency:

What is this "IQ test" really going to do?

Sorry to hear that.

Though I'm not quite sure what you mean by "the online package repos".

The PowerShell Gallery is populated by both the community and Microsoft ( and is as hit or miss as npm or nuget ).

What package repos are you talking about ?

Strongly Encouraged Development Guidelines - PowerShell Strongly Encouraged Development Guidelines

A number of teams that write cmdlets unfortunately know their c# apis much better than they know #PowerShell, and can create subpar commands.

It doesn't help that they often don't RTFM.

Link to the rule they're breaking:

learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powers...

If there's one thing I don't like as a metaprogrammer, it's having to constantly changeCase depending on if I'm writing #CSS, #JavaScript, or #PowerShell. ( Looking at you -data-attributes)

And having to remember that only one of three languages is case insensitive.

Just to be clear, this is a case of badly designed cmdlets.

PowerShell package management has nothing to do with it.

Please blame the exchange team who built the bad commands, not the language.

Also, please file an issue on that module so that it gets fixed.

Your code should work.

I implemented #Turtle in #PowerShell, so now we can draw shapes and #fractals in PowerShell.

I think it came out pretty decently. What do you think ?

Going out on a light limb...

Differences in PSModulePath?

( Like needing to install the module for the GMSA user ).

If that's not it, I would look for similar presumptions in user pathing.

Turtle is one of many tools built with a .types.ps1xml file.

I mainly use a very old module called EZOut to write types and format files.

It takes a directory like you see in Turtle and turns it into types.

Gave #Turtle a couple of quick updates, and now we can draw #fractals that require a Push or Pop.

Also, made it so that you can include an image inline in a page just by stringifying 😎.

Check it out and see what you can do with Turtles in a #PowerShell.

What'd ya do this weekend?

I made #Turtle #Graphics for #PowerShell!
And added #Fractals.

GitHub.com/PowerShellWe...

i.e.:
Turtle Flower 50 10 5 |
Save-Turtle ./f.svg

Outputs #CSS, #HTML, #JPEG, #PNG, #SVG, or #WEBP. Runs in #Github.

Easy #Pattern & #Animation, too.

Cool?

This is my 2000th post to BlueSky.

It has me thinking:

In the year 2000, we had:

- No world wars
- Affordable housing
- Fewer conglomerates
- Two functioning parties
- One open Internet

Is it too soon to say that the 21st century kinda sucks?

Smart quotes are the worst.

Did you know that you can morph shapes with #SVG?

See how to get #PowerShell gallery metadata with the #Nuget #OData API:

I cannot overstate how useful this page has been in writing #PowerShell scripts to query the gallery:

Care to share ?

PowerShell daydreams can be quite fun.

I feel the same way after 18 years of working with #PowerShell

CSS Keyframes CSS Keyframes are cool (and easy to write in PowerShell)

Hey #CSS and #PowerShell people:

I've been experimenting around with generating #keyframes, and think I may have made too many cool CSS animations.

What do you think? Any more animations you want to see ? Which animations do you love/hate ?

Range indexing is quite beautifully broken.

Any collection can be indexed with a range of items.

So, something like.

$ht[$ht.keys -match '^col'] would also work 😉😎

#PowerShell Range indexing 😉

You can also add aliases to parameters, so it can be -Color or -Colour.

I wish the #AzureDevOps rest API for commits would properly paginate.

Or, at least, tell me the total number of commits so I can make an accurate #PowerShell progress bar.

😕
