Edit Question
Title
Body
In doing some Powershell automation, I'm having trouble with the way that data written to stdout by a .cmd file is automatically captured. I have two functions that do something like the following: function a { & external.cmd # prints "foo" return "bar" } function b { $val = a echo $val # prints "foobar", rather than just "bar" } Basically, data that external.cmd sends to stdout is added to the return value of a , even though all I really want to return from a is the string that I specified. How can I prevent this?
