That's right, but Vista's mainstream support ended in 2012 and according to 
Wikipedia it's market share
is below 3 %. So I think it's not a target platform anymore.
So a better statement would be: "All current up to date Windows installations 
are equipped with PS" :)

OK. My plan was to see if this short intro is too short or too long or if I 
should explain some parts more in detail :)
After that, we can copy and paste the lines into a README and/or a wiki page on 
GitHub. Normally, I try to ask
other people do my instructions step by step and let them rework my usage 
guides. That not laziness. It's just
that I know my tools and my steps, so I forget to mention some not so obvious 
steps.

FTR, wasn't PowerShell introduced with Vista ?

There are a lot of documentation in this mail, I will copy part of it in the 
README.

Is someone against removing old .bat scripts ?  I'd prefer not to have two ways 
to build on windows (maintenance burden and could be confusing for users).

Thanks again,
Tristan.
