I found it today on github, looks cool, but unfortunately it has no nushell support.

speaking of supported shells, here is a list:

bash
zsh
fish
pwsh
powershell

What is a real advantage compared to plain autocomplete? Was it trained to know command flags?

It is anyway nice to see that even in Microsoft the abomination of Powershell is the lowest in the list of shells. It is probably time for them to drop it completely

Have you even used PS? I'm sorry, but PowerShell is leagues ahead of old shit like bash and alike.

Unfortunately... That is why I commented above...

Powershell is a shell that pretends to be an OO language and that fails dramatically at both.

It was a design mistake. Much better having a real separation, a real shell and a real OO language. As even Microsoft has recently understood. As you can see also in this case, where Powershell is the last entry

It's last in the list, because PS is Intellisensed in VS Code for like a decade now. You're so out of the loop I wonder why you keep posting incorrect stuff.

VSCode supports it also for other shells. This repo is not about vscode, it's about actual shells. You are the one incorrect in this case

When someone brings points in the discussion, you react like a fan boy student that just bought the new gaming laptop.

Could you please reply about the discussion or go back to school? I am too old for your "no, you shit, you stoopid"

I wonder myself why I keep answering to your comments and that's why this is my last comment

Well you know how it is, you always save the best for last. 😉
