Somewhere in Q4 2018 (actual year, not fiscal year) when .NET Core 2.2 gets released, but you can tinker with it right now: [WayBack] A command-line REPL for RESTful HTTP Services – Scott Hanselman.
Release estimates at [WayBack] core/roadmap.md at master · dotnet/core · GitHub.

Interesting read: [WayBack] Down on the Upside – Kevlin Henney – Medium
Abstraction is a question of less over more. But is it also a question of high over low?
What developers call abstraction, is not the abstraction end-users mean. Being aware of that makes software development life a whole lot easier.

Answering [WayBack] delphi – post-build event with multiple if/copy combinations only execute if first file does not exist – Stack Overflow made me do a quick search for parentheses handling in batch files. TL;DR: it is a mess.
But it reveals some interesting links:

Due some issues in Windows, every now and then the Windows TEMP directory gets huge.
This script helps measuring the recursive size of that folder:
$WindowPath = [System.Environment]::GetFolderPath([System.Environment+SpecialFolder]::Windows)
$WindowTempPath = Join-Path -Path $WindowPath -ChildPath "TEMP"
$Result = Get-ChildItem $WindowTempPath -Recurse | Measure-Object -Property Length -Sum
$RecursiveSumInBytes = $Result.Sum
Write-Host "$RecursiveSumInBytes"
It uses these tricks:
Length property of each Child-Item to determine their Sum.After this, cleaning up uses two more tricks:
Recurse option of [WayBack] Remove-Item will remove both files and directories having filesFullName property of the Get-Item enumeration $_ as otherwise you get the short name and Remove-Item will trying to delete those in the current directory (see [WayBack] PowerShell: Enumerate Files recursive and get full path for each file « Microsoft « ..::\ www.christiano.ch //::..).
$WindowPath = [System.Environment]::GetFolderPath([System.Environment+SpecialFolder]::Windows)
$WindowTempPath = Join-Path -Path $WindowPath -ChildPath "TEMP"
Get-ChildItem $WindowTempPath -Recurse | foreach { Remove-Item $_.FullName -Recurse }
