PSReadLine

The PSReadLine module contains cmdlets that let you customize the command-line editing environment in PowerShell. PowerShell 7.1 shipped with PSReadLine v2.1. These articles document PSReadLine v2.1.

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.
