Re: Files created by Powershell are over 2X bigger than files createdby text editor or cmd.exe. That did the trick! Thank you Karl.
I was starting to go down that path (unicode vs. ascii), but hadn't
nailed it yet.
Can I make ASCII the default output encoding? Is this wise?
Something that threw me off is $OutputEncoding. Why doesn't
$OutputEncoding show Unicode?
PS C:\> $OutputEncoding
