It's even quite sad that people are still using the Windows Command Prompt when PowerShell 2.0 was already around in 2008, nine years ago. 2.0 was really the first practically useful version after a very experimental 1.8 as far back as 2006. PowerShell 5.0, extremely highly evolved, has already been out for one year today, Feb 14.
I was always jealous of the *nix scripting shells that were powers of magnitude more powerful that the old command prompt, with hardly any programmability, but now PowerShell 5.0 makes all of those *nix shells look a Fischer-Price product compared to .NET framework object oriented scripting.
And now that PowerShell is available on all common platforms, we're bound to see lots of awakenings in the non-Windows world.

I still use the command prompt every single day and it is a part of my development. Although if I need to script I do that in linux via PuTTY to one of our linux servers or on a locally using a cygwin terminal.

I have at least two PS windows open all day for dev purposes, and about once a month open a legacy command prompt because I'm too rushed or too lazy to find out how to achieve a certain "DOS" command in PS.

But some of my coworkers are developing on Linux, so when they add new source files, they do not add to Visual Studio project which is a source of frustration for me.

Now you get to select two options,  Shouldn't this be multi select question?. And I also made selection for my Linux machine; Kubuntu.
