Description
The filesystem provider's -Raw switch for Get-Content is confusingly named:
-
raw suggests reading raw bytes, which is not what it does.
-
conversely, raw doesn't convey that the file is being read as a whole.
Without breaking backward compatibility, a more sensibly named parameter alias could be defined, such as -Whole.
