PSReadLine
The PSReadLine module contains cmdlets that let you customize the command-line editing environment in PowerShell.
There have been many updates to PSReadLine since the version that ships in Windows PowerShell 5.1.
- PowerShell 7.4.0 ships with PSReadLine 2.3.4
- PowerShell 7.3.0 ships with PSReadLine 2.2.6
- PowerShell 7.2.5 ships with PSReadLine 2.1.0
- PowerShell 7.0.11 ships with PSReadLine 2.0.4
- PowerShell 5.1 ships with PSReadLine 2.0.0
These articles document version 2.3.4 of PSReadLine.
Note
Beginning with PowerShell 7.0, PowerShell skips auto-loading PSReadLine on Windows if a screen reader program is detected. Currently, PSReadLine doesn't work well with the screen readers. The default rendering and formatting of PowerShell 7.0 on Windows works properly. You can manually load the module if necessary.
