Jesse, please let me know your consideration regarding promises usage and
if there are places which should be improved. I personally tried to do my best
to make code as readable as possible, but it's not so easy taking into account
async nature of shell commands. I see, there is the same situation on Android
where there are many async methods.

Promises helps here a lot since we don't need to manually manage
success/error callbacks/cases and can chain them.

> Key: CB-7129
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7129
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Windows 8
> Affects Versions: 3.6.0
> Reporter: Vladimir Kotikov
> Assignee: Jesse MacFadyen
> Fix For: 3.6.0

>
> Current realization of platform/tooling scripts on Windows is using WSH
> (Windows Scripting Host) as JS engine which works unpredictable with unicode
> symbols (incorrect reading/writing of UTF-8 encoded files, incorect passing
> of unicode paths as arguments to another scripts, etc.)
> Switching to NodeJS can help to resolve many of unicode related issues in
> cordova-windows projects.
