Shortcuts for Cmdlet Parameters

by Nov 2, 2009

You can shorten parameter names since cmdlet parameters are sometimes long and hard to type in. You will only need to enter as much of a parameter name as is necessary to uniquely identify it. For example, instead of calling "dir –recurse," you can simply type "dir -r" because -recurse is the only parameter starting with the letter "r".
