I'm new to WSL as a development environment, and I'm trying to set some environment variable to begin working on an open source project. In this case, a domain and secret key. I've followed the steps mentioned here https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/share-environment-vars-between-wsl-and-windows/ and here https://medium.com/#kevinv92/how-to-use-wslenv-to-share-environment-variables-between-windows-and-wsl-c06099d5b901 and this is output:
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19041.388]
(c) 2020 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
C:\Users\kyles>wsl -l -v
NAME STATE VERSION
* Ubuntu-20.04 Running 2
C:\Users\kyles>echo %WSLENV%
MVC_FIREBASE_API_KEY/p:MVC_FIREBASE_DOMAIN/p
C:\Users\kyles>echo %MVC_FIREBASE_DOMAIN%
minimum-viable-ceremonies-dev
C:\Users\kyles>wsl
kylesnowschwartz#DESKTOP-VN55S9F:/mnt/c/Users/kyles$ echo $WSLENV
MVC_FIREBASE_API_KEY/p:MVC_FIREBASE_DOMAIN/p
kylesnowschwartz#DESKTOP-VN55S9F:/mnt/c/Users/kyles$ echo $MVC_FIREBASE_DOMAIN
Nothing is output when for the environment variable, as I am expecting. I would appreciate any help in understanding what I don't understand!
The Microsoft blog entry is a bit confusing. Fortunately your problem is quite simple: You are using path translation option /p but your environment variable is not a path!
Passing environment variable from Windows to WSL, use /u option:
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19044.1706]

C:\Users\arttu>set MVC_FIREBASE_DOMAIN=minimum-viable-ceremonies-dev

C:\Users\arttu>wsl
$ echo $MVC_FIREBASE_DOMAIN
minimum-viable-ceremonies-dev

I run dotnet from powershell script, and when I specify some unknown switch powershell does not detect any error. And output goes to stdout whereas I'd expect it to be stderr.
Is it a setting on dotnet or powershell side? I need script to fail in case of errors.
dotnet pack -dsfsdf Microsoft (R) Build Engine version
15.8.166+gd4e8d81a88 for .NET Core Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
MSBUILD : error MSB1001: Unknown switch. Switch: -dsfsdf
For switch syntax, type "MSBuild /help"
Indeed dotnet-pack writes errors to stdout, however it sets exit code to 1 in case of unknown parameter. You can check it with following code:
dotnet pack -asd
echo $LASTEXITCODE

It's should be echo $Env:foo instead of echo $foo
simply save the following in notepad using UTF-8

double click or run it from command line

is there any way to run the unicode script in Windows Script Host?
cscript.exe can run scripts saved using [Unicode] (seems UTF-16).

After a quick google search I found this link: Mercurial: simple way to revert .orig files?, with the following line of code in the comment:
for /f %i in ('dir /s /b *.orig') do #copy %i %~dpni
In powershell, I tried running it, but I got the following error: Missing opening ( after kyeword for.
Is powershell not the correct way to run this code or is the syntax incorrect?
I am trying to revert my orig files back to their original version (get rid of the .orig extension). I am using windows so BASH is not an easy option.
The comment that snippet came from suggests that the environment you can run that line in is the "Windows command prompt with Command Extensions."
You can create that environment like so: cmd /e:on. It didn't seem like using powershell was the intention, but you could type cmd /e:on into the powershell console and get that environment.
PS C:\> cmd /e:on
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]

C:\> Command Prompt Input is Valid Here
You received that error because that syntax is incorrect for powershell -- for statements expect parameters in parenthesis. It should work once you're in the appropriate shell, though.
