I found that out, yes. About the difference between "" and @null, I
mean - hadn't heard that about the garbage collection.

Being old (school), I have a tendency to declare variables, and
initialize them. Holdover from my early 1980s programming courses.
(told you I was old ...)

I believe the latest Quest versions are 1.6; the file date says 2012 ....

I still like them, and find them easier to use (if perhaps less
efficient) than the MS cmdlets. And (luckily) I haven't had a memory
issue using them, probably because I don't usually write very
complicated scripts.
