'b' | select-String 'a' -Quiet

consider following

 

c:...\windowspowershell> 'a' | select-string 'a' -quiet

true

c:...\windowspowershell> 'b' | select-string 'a' -quiet

c:...\windowspowershell>

 

i expected second command return false.

 

 

 

 

while is counter intuitive, keep basic functionality of select-string. select-string returns *nothing* if there no matches. seems cods should updated not -quiet return false.
