You could running PowerShell in Wine: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=8049 Alternatively, you could install MSWindows in a VM, e.g. using VirtualBox, and launch this within your Gentoo session without having to logoff/on every time. Also, if you don't need the complete MSWindows desktop and you have a server handy, you could run the MSWindows VM there and access the PowerShell application remotely with RemoteApp. HTH. -- Regards, Mick
