How about a PowerShell based 'make' file? #3145

Hello,

the generated make.bat is kind of outdated on modern Windows machines. At first batch files are called command files (*.cmd) since more than 15 years (Windows 2000). Second, the old Windows command line (cmd.exe) is also outdated. Windows is shipped with PowerShell since Windows Vista.

So how about a PowerShell based make.ps1 file with self-documentation (integrated help page)?

I could provide a basic file with a selection of "build targets". I don't use all target nor have I a full setup to test them all. So I could provide a start for further feature additions.

Kind regards
Patrick Lehmann
