Compliments and feedback

I've using this site for many years. It is always a pleasure to use it. The info is accurate and easy to find.
Thanks for that.
One little thing just came up. I was using the example empty.cmd and came in to trouble with the core statement.

DIR %pathpdf% /B | FIND /V "SomeRandomString2468" >nul && (SET _empty=Not Empty) || (SET _empty=Empty)

Querying on the %_empty% with an IF statement returnd an error. The "Not Empty" value is not handled correctly. The "Not" part was interperted as part of the command.
I used "IF [%_empty%]==[Empty]" and cmd.exe replied with "Empty]==[Empty] is not expected at this point". Changing "Not Empty" into "NotEmpty" solved this issue.

Re: Compliments and feedback

This doesn't work (anymore?)

If I use the script below which is available on site

http://ss64.com/ps/syntax-functions.html

I just get this displayed

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access /ps/.html on this server.


Am I doing something wrong?
Do I have to unlock something special?

Thanks


Copy From Page
A function to display PowerShell help on SS64.com, this will launch your default web browser:

 function Get-Help2
 {
   param{[string]$command}
   Start-process -filepath "http://ss64.com/ps/$command.html"
 }

PS C:\> Get-Help2 set-acl

Re: Compliments and feedback

Schoolboy error, I used the wrong brackets.

I fixed the page now but this is what you need:

 function Get-Help2
 {
   param([string]$command)
   Start-process -filepath "http://ss64.com/ps/$command.html"
 }

PS C:\> Get-Help2 set-acl
